The chapter argues that many acts labeled “sexual” (e.g., harassment, assault) are better understood as delinquent behavior rather than expressions of sexuality. It critiques patriarchal culture for conflating crime with sexuality, which subtly blames victims and minimizes violations of self-determination compared to property crimes. The authors distinguish three social stances: responsible behavior (creative adaptation with awareness of consequences), irresponsible behavior (egocentric unawareness), and delinquent behavior (indifference to consequences and the right to violate others’ boundaries for gain). They show how delinquency can be normalized by institutions—war being a prime example—and discuss the clinical impact of naming violence as delinquent within therapy. Denial is highlighted as a common defense among sex offenders, complicating accountability. Conceptually, the text proposes reclaiming “perversion” to denote pleasure derived from violating another’s boundaries, while reserving “paraphilia” for consensual, atypical but non-harmful sexual expressions. Finally, it calls for a sexology that recognizes the full diversity of orientations and identities (e.g., pansexuality, demisexuality, asexuality), rejects expert gatekeeping, and stays anchored in lived experience—connecting sexuality to aggression, the “sexual self,” and a nuanced clinical approach to dysfunctions and paraphilias.
