Abstract:

The human primordial need and desire for sex is nowadays often satisfied in the cyberspace, bringing sex at the top of internet search results. Importantly, a percentage between 50-60% of internet visits is of sexual intent and pleasure, while the 25% of total daily search in the USA involves pornographic content. Any sexually oriented activity within the cyberspace is generally defined as Cybersex; it is usually expressed by acts pertaining to the search for sexual partner and for sexual stimulation and orgasm through visual stimulations, messages or conversations.

AbstractThis research emanates from an anti-sexual violence bystander programme delivered at an English university. Fifteen students were identified through purposive and convenience sampling to take part in focus groups. Discussions emerged regarding atypical sexual harassment. There is a gap in the literature exploring sexual harassment outside of the male perpetrator and female victim narrative which this paper contributes to. This paper considers four conversational themes: ‘unwanted touching: women to men’, ‘sexual banter: women to men’, ‘sexual stereotypes: women and men’, and ‘developin

Abstract:

Knowledge about sexual harassment committed by males with intellectual disabilities remains limited, despite extensive research on offenders without disabilities. Evidence from the late 1990s suggests that Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) can be effective for this population, with adjustments for cognitive deficits. This study systematically reviews the application of CBT to address cognitive distortions in sexual offenders with intellectual disabilities.

Abstract:

The spotted hyaena (Crocuta crocuta) is a unique species, even amongst the Hyaenidae. Extreme clitoral development in female spotted hyaenas challenges aspects of the accepted framework of sexual differentiation and reproductive function. They lack a vulva and instead urinate, copulate and give birth through a single, long urogenital canal that traverses a clitoris superficially resembling a penis. Recent and historical evidence is reviewed to describe our changing understanding of the biology of this species. Expanding upon observations from hyaenas in nature, much has been learned from studi

Self-injurious behaviours (SIBs) are defined as deliberate, repetitive and persistent behaviours that are directed towards the body and lead to physical injury and are not associated with sexual arousal and without suicidal intent. In movement disorders, SIBs are typically associated with tic disorders, most commonly Tourette syndrome, and neurometabolic conditions, such as classic Lesch-Nyhan syndrome. However, beyond these well-known aetiologies, a range of other movement disorder syndromes may also present with SIBs, even though this clinical association remains less well-known. Given the s

AimsBackground: Late-onset Tay-Sachs disease (LOTS) is an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disease due to a variety of mutations in the hexosaminidase-A gene which leads to accumulation of GM2 ganglioside in the brain. It typically presents in late adolescence with a slowly progressive spectrum of neurologic symptoms including lower-extremity weakness with muscle atrophy, dysarthria, incoordination, tremor and mild spasticity and/or dystonia. Psychiatric symptoms including mood disorder, psychosis and neurocognitive symptoms occur in around 50% of cases but are rarely the presenting featu

Abstract:

Adolescents with autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) have similar sexual desires and relationship needs to their neuro-typical peers. However, they may be more likely to demonstrate problematic sexual behaviors as they mature, due to lack of education about sexuality, vulnerability to sexual abuse, deficits in social communication and understanding, restricted and repetitive interests and behaviors, and sensory interests. Treatment for sexual acting out behaviors in adolescents with ASD has not been explored and current recommendations focus on prevention through sexual education, which provides

Abstract:

Two species of rain-forest snakes, the colubrids Natriciteres fuliginoides and Natriciteres variegata, are potential competitors, because they attain, on average, the same body size (2030 cm long), have similar habits and ecological requirements (they are both diurnal and nocturnal, often semi-aquatic), and have similar dietary spectra ( including both small vertebrates and invertebrates). I studied prey type and predator size prey size relationships of these snakes in four swamp-forest areas of southeastern Nigeria (West Africa): only N. fuliginoides was found in two of these areas, wherea

Abstract:

This research is motivated by the researchers' concern about children, especially adolescents with autism. Autism is not a mental illness but it is a disorder that affects the brain, causing it to not function properly. This can be seen in the behavior of children with autism. The purpose of this research is to find out the experiences of parents of children and adolescents with autism spectrum disorder. This research uses a qualitative research design with a research approach to phenomenology. The result of this research showed that sex knowledge of children with autism spectrum disorder is s

Background: The need for sexual education for adolescents with ASD in the formal education setting is increasingly important. The "taboo" perception of talking about sexual development and the absence of sexual education for adolescents with ASD in schools and therapy centers, then forces parents to take full responsibility for the sexual development of adolescents with ASD. The imbalance between the needs of sexual development, sexual education facilities, and the limitations of adolescents due to ASD disorders suffered, placing adolescents with ASD are in a group that is vulnerable to sexual

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) involves challenges in social communication and repetitive behaviors, impacting daily functioning. Individuals with ASD face unique difficulties regarding sexuality, often experiencing mismatches between sexual development and social maturity, leading to potential inappropriate behaviors. Social competence deficits may limit their understanding of sexuality, increasing risks of offending or victimization. Gender differences in sexual behavior are evident, with males showing earlier and more frequent sexual activity, while females demonstrate greater flexibility i

ASD consists of a set of permanent neurodevelopmental conditions, which are studded with social and communication differences, limited interests, and repetitive behaviors. Individuals with ASD have difficulty reading eye gestures and expressions, and may also have stereotyped or repetitive language, excessive adherence to routines, fixed interests, and rigid thinking. However, sexuality in adolescents and young adults with ASD is still a poorly studied and neglected issue.

This seems to be a reminder for us, especially the young generation, to have the knowledge and ability to protect behavior from sexual abuse. This study aims to measure the extent of literacy of sexual harassment and violence on the level of self-protection by adolescents (15 – 21).

Abstract:

Sexual addiction, hypersexuality, sexual compulsivity, and sexual impulsivity are all terms that describe a psychological disorder that is characterized by a person’s inability to control his or her sexual behavior. This spectrum of symptoms are often referred to as sexual addiction disorder. Whether excessive sexual behavior should be regarded as an addiction, or a compulsion, or an impulse control disorder is arguable, as each label indicates a specific etiological model and treatment plan. Sexual addiction disorder has been largely ignored by the clinicians, although it causes significant e

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental condition characterized by deficits in social interaction, impaired communication, and repetitive behaviors. ASD presents a 3:1 ratio of diagnosed boys and girls, raising the question regarding sexual dimorphic mechanisms underlying ASD symptoms, and their molecular basis. Here, we performed in vivo proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy in juvenile male and female Tsc2+/− mice (an established genetic animal model of ASD). Moreover, behavior and ultrasonic vocalizations during social and repetitive tasks were analyzed. We found significant
