Traditionally child sexual abuse has been perceived as a male
crime, however, recent research suggests that a significant
minority of offenders are female. While recognizing the importance
of male perpetrators, this groundbreaking book places the behavior
of these offending women into social context, challenging
conventional perceptions of female offenders, femininity, and
mothering. Including case studies and responses from professionals
in the field, this key text highlights the problems inherent in
protecting children and identifies ways in which we can develop a
clearer understanding of the social processes involved through an
analysis of the denial and minimisation used by female
perpetrators. It offers a critical understanding of the notions of
harm, the rights of the child, and professional practice while
defining some of the limitations and possibilities of a feminist
analysis of child sexual abuse by women.
