From the Paper
"Probably the most compelling reason child sexual predators are so dangerous is the number of children they victimize. According to Anna Salter Ph.D. (2003), the average child molester victimizes between 50 and 150 children before he is arrested. Furthermore, based on data from a study of 232 child sexual offenders where victims were fourteen years of age and younger, concluded that the average number per offender was 75.8 (Salter Ph.D., 2003). However, according to a 1994 National Institute of Health Survey of 453 pedophiles conducted by Dr. Gene Abel, showed these criminals were collectively responsible for the molestation of over 67,000 children, and average of 148 children per individual pedophile (Bader, 2003). Despite which study is the most accurate, the lowest numbers are incredible amounts of victimized children. "

From the Paper
"Sex offenders report regularly to probation officers, who ensure they follow the rules; to social workers who provide psychological support and services; and to polygraph examiners who can assess an offender's truthfulness about contacts with children or possession of pornography (Waters, 2004). "The more structure that is given to a sex offender, the fewer sexual re-offenses occur", says Charles Onley, researcher associate with the Center for Sex Offender Management (Waters, 2004)."

Abstract
This paper discusses whether childhood intimacy problems can serve as a catalyst for creating a sexual predator later in life. The paper analyzes factors of intimacy along with profiles of sexual perpetrators and then relates the two issues. The paper also attempts to create an increased understanding of the reasoning a perpetrator utilizes and how s/he defends his/her actions. The paper then attempts to determine whether the perpetrator blames or relates his/her crimes and actions on the need for non-sexual intimacy. The paper includes a section of copied research material.

From the Paper
"Bolen (2003) argues that abuse prevalence has not decreased through the course of implementing prevention programs. Prevention programs, instead, are deemed to be more effective ways to target potential offenders. Programs to promote healthy relationship patterns may be successful for the identical reason current prevention programs do not seem to succeed at reducing abuse. These programs target reducing offending behavior instead of reducing victimization. One of the primary causal factors for the current child sexual abuse epidemic and the prevalence of male offenders - the social definition of the male sex role are targeted. To begin to reduce child sexual abuse, targeting one of the vital causes of child sexual abuse; as well as, providing healthy behavioral alternatives are needed."

Abstract
This paper discusses how criminals today are using modern technology to prey on innocent victims and how computers and the Internet have made the predator?s job easier. It looks at how, in the past, child predators found their victims in public places where children tend to gather, such as schoolyards, playgrounds, and shopping malls, and how, today, they have a new place in cyberspace to target children for criminal acts. It looks at how the Internet must be monitored and investigated to prevent crimes against children. It discusses the topic of Internet child-luring and sexual crimes in an effort to determine how the Internet can be used as an investigative tool to prevent these types of crimes.

From the Paper
"Innovative Internet technology gives pedophiles the opportunity to exchange information about children in an organized environment (Faulkner, 1997). By using the Internet, they can meet in chat rooms and educate one another on how to commit this crime. Over the Internet, pedophiles exchange plans and ideas about how to meet, attract, and exploit children, -- and how to lure the parents of these children into a false sense of security about their presence within the family structure. Many Internet sites host online "How To" seminar in pedophilia activities, whether the site managers know it or not."

Abstract
This paper examines how the Internet can introduce new dangers for children. The author describes how accessing the Internet creates a link with millions of people. Today, many children use the internet. With so many children online, child predators can easily find and exploit them. The paper concludes with a list to be used if one suspects their child is being exploited on the Internet.
From the Paper
"Children have at all times been susceptible to oppression. Their gullible natures and innocence make them faultless targets for perpetratorsaE"both people they know and those they don't. As children grow into adolescents, they remain vulnerable to victimization. Youth are time and again curious and eager to try new things. Many youth struggle with issues of rebellion and independence and seek attention and affection from people outside the home, often by using computers. Today, an estimated 10 million children are using the Internet. By 2005, just about 77 million kids will be online. With so many children online, today's predators can easily find and exploit them. For predators, the Internet is a new, effective, and more anonymous way to seek out and groom children for criminal purposes such as producing and distributing child pornography, contacting and stalking children for the purpose of engaging in sexual acts, and exploiting children for sexual tourism for personal and commercial purposes. The temperament of Internet crimes presents complex new challenges for law enforcement agencies and victim service providers with regard to investigating crimes, collecting evidence, identifying and apprehending offenders, and assisting child victims and their families. For instance, victims and perpetrators are often separated geographically, which may hamper investigation efforts. Also, victims are often ashamed and reluctant to come forward, which makes identifying offenders difficult. These challenges are being addressed by federal and local law enforcement agencies, but there is still much to learn about preventing, identifying, and investigating Internet-based crimes against children.

"Sexual Harassment and Sexual Revictimization
Background to the Study
Over the last two decades, research studies have documented significant rates of child sexual abuse among both female and male children. Estimates for female children under the age of 18 who have experienced at least one incident of abuse ranges from 1 in 4 to 1 in 2.5 among nonclinical samples (Kohn, 1987; Wyatt, 1985). Estimates for male children are approximately 1 in 8.
There are a number of effects that have been associated with childhood sexual abuse, including psychological, sexual, and interpersonal difficulties (Briere, 1992). One additional problem that has been associated with early abuse is sexual..."

Abstract
This paper presents a rhetorical analysis of Sandra Hughes' CBS news item, "MySpace: Your Kids' Danger? Popular Social Networking Site Can Be Grounds For Sexual Predators." It aims to move beyond the implicit and relatively superficial review of the text to a fuller understanding of how the text creates meaning, how it helps the reader to construct knowledge and how it sways us to take action. The paper specifically looks at how the language of this article works.
From the Paper
"Visually, the story is arranged as a headline, a smaller-font secondary headline, and then twenty-two paragraphs, this for a story containing not quite 650 words. Immediately below the headlines, half of the reading column is taken up by a graphical image showing a computer in silhouette with transparencies of several young children, mostly girls, and several of them using cellphones. Below the graphic is a quote, suggesting the danger the article warns of. The effect of the graphic, the quote, and the headlines is to draw readers to the story that follows, a story that opens with three suggestive vignettes about children being approached in a sexually explicit manner on the Internet. Two of the three teenage girls described in the opening vignettes were murdered."

Abstract
This paper reviews several articles discussing female sexuality. It reviews articles on what female sexuality is, what is involved in the sexuality of females, what helps aide in feminine sexuality and what hinders a women's sexuality. The paper looks at some of the problems associated with women's sexuality and whether these are perceived, physical, or medical problems. Finally,it examine how women see their own sexuality.
From the Paper
"Before the advent of the ?sexual revolution? in the 1960s the subject of female sexuality was considered taboo in so called polite society. Discussion of sexuality by females was viewed as an aberration. Women were taught and told that the normal reaction of women towards sexual intercourse was that they generally did not feel any physical or emotional pleasure from it. Sex was a means to an end; by performing their wifely duty to please their mates women were subjugated to the role of baby maker. This severe repression of female sexuality and its total submission to reproductive functions determined the limits of knowledge for untold generations of women (Gomex 1995)."

"Sexuality is a term that means different things to different people. The same can be stated for sexuality in politics, religion, and social relations. This paper discusses the articles of "Sexuality" and "The Sexual Revolution." How is sexuality a political issue? How does sexuality affect the way people live? How has sexuality changed through the years? These questions are important in helping a person develop their own sexual identity and understand why a person believes the way he/she does about social politics or the social issues of sexuality. The authors show how sexuality is affected by both religion and politically. Sexuality has changed over the years in many different ways. "Throughout the course of U.S. history, the meaning of sexuality has been continuously reshaped by changing economic and social institutions". At one time the word "sex" would get the attention of people because sexuality was not discussed in public."

Abstract
In this essay, the writer notes that children affected by pornography are most of the times left with emotional scars that affect the rest of their lives. The writer claims that for this reason it is important for all the parties involved and those able to take decisions to act jointly in order to limit the spread of child pornography. The writer concludes that legislative measures are the most efficient means of combating child pornography. Taking into account the authority of the state to apply the law and convict those breaking it, the writer argues that aside from any independent initiatives, it is the government that can and must take action against child pornography.
From the Paper
"We live in an era governed by technology and increased global interdependence that tends to manifest in every aspect of the society. It was therefore natural for children to have an increased access to everything involving gadgets, devices, and means of communication and information. At the same time however, these means are indeed available worldwide and do not discriminate between users and information receivers. This is why, more and more often, these universal means of communication have become a very common tool for those interested in pornographic and sexual practices. It can be said even that the Internet has facilitated their actions and now, pornography and sexual predators have an easier task in achieving their goals."

Abstract
This paper critically examines some of the works published concerning the creation of one's sexual identity as well as the various agents of sexual socialization at work on modern-day youth. The chosen texts are: "In the Same Boat? The Gendered (in)experience of first heterosex?, "?Was it Good For You Too??: Gender Differences in First Sexual Intercourse Experiences?, ?Sexual Messages on Television: Comparing Findings from Three Studies" and ?Effects of Neighborhood and School Environments on Transitions to First Sexual Intercourse?.
From the Paper
"The first of these works, ?In The Same Boat? (...)? was primarily interested with illustrating first sexual experiences from a feminist stance. It states that ?first sex? is more of a rite of passage for men than for women, using the idea that a male becomes a symbolic ?man? upon the act of first coitus, while a female becomes a symbolic ?woman? upon reaching puberty, and the onset of menstruation."

Abstract
The paper raises the issues of sexual harassment and sexual discrimination in the workplace, showing how the issue was brought to light with the Clarence Thomas confirmation hearings in 1991 and with the accusations of sexual harassment leveled against him by Anita Hill. The writer brings examples of cases in which employees have claimed either harassment or discrimination from higher ranking employees.
From the Paper
"The issue has evolved in the lower courts based on Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which prohibits sexual discrimination in the work place. Sex discrimination was not included in the original draft of this legislation but was added at the last minute as an attempt to prevent passage of the Act. As a result, the true intent of Congress in the matter is not known. The first case litigated under this statute was Barnes v. Train some ten years after passage, and the District Court of the District of Columbia rejected the suit as not being the type purposed by the Act. The next case was a year later in Corne v. Bausch & Lomb, Inc. in which two female employees claimed constructive discharge as a result of physical and verbal sexual advances, and the Arizona Federal District Court rejected the suit as not being what was intended by the Act."

From the Paper
"Since adults cannot accompany children everywhere they go, some parents for have some time tried to teach their children information and skills that would make it less likely for the child to become the target or victim of a sexual predator. Research shows that child education may be the best prevention for sex abuse (Bethea, 1999). Often this training has been misguided, and children have been warned of the ?danger of strangers,? even though most cases of pedophilia are committed by someone the child already knows (Leigh, 1995). Research also shows that most children who are sexually abused do not tell parents or other adults for some years (Fieldman, 2002), and this likelihood of silence makes them more vulnerable. Meanwhile, research has shown that teaching children specific strategies improves both prevention and reports of abuse when it occurs (Brown University, 2001)."

Abstract
This paper proposes a research project on a field of cybercrime that is of particular concern to parents and all of those who are concerned about the safety of children: The exposure of children to pornography through the Internet and the far more serious problem of children?s becoming involved in the production of pornography through contacts that they make when surfing the web.
From the Paper
"The statistics concerning the incidents of cybercrime are alarming indeed in no small measure because of the myriad ways in which home computers have become integrated into every aspect of our lives. Computers seem to be always on and always available to children and because of this many adults do not remember how vigilant they in fact should be. The following are some important statistics to be aware of:
?1 in 3 households have been intruded upon through the internet. (National White Collar Crime Center)
?Online child pornography/child sex exploitation is the most significant crime problem confronting the FBI that involves crimes against children. (FBI Innocent Images National Initiative)
?There was a 1,264% increase in the number of cases opened over the last four years. (FBI Innocent Images National Initiative). "

"The Crime Bill of 1994
Introduction
The Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act of 1994 was signed into law by President Clinton on 13 September 1994.. There was opposition to the bill in the Congress. The source of most of this opposition, however, was Republican legislators who would vote against a resolution praising God if such a resolution were offered by President Clinton or indeed by any Democrat. The game of political insanity being played by congressional Republicans, however, does not mean that serious and thoughtful opposition does not or should not exist in relation to various provisions of the crime bill or to the omission from that bill of various proposals dealing with crime.
