Whenever the media exposes the news of a girl being sexually assaulted, many mothers tell us about their fears and anxieties when their daughters are growing up. The younger the daughter, the more nervous the mother appears. As a qualified parent, what should we teach our children about sexual assault? You might as well ask your children the following questions first:
1) Do you know what types of sexual assault there are?
2) If there is no physical contact, does it not count as sexual assault?
3) If someone takes a video of you taking off your clothes and posts it online, is it considered sexual assault?
Here, we first need to introduce an important term - privacy part.
The red circle mark in the picture is our private part, which is also the place covered by the vest and pants. Children must remember that these places are our "little secrets". We must protect them and never show them to others, let alone touch them!
After understanding the private parts, we come to the topic-types of sexual assault. Generally speaking, sexual assault is divided into two categories: physical contact sexual assault and non-physical contact sexual assault.
1. Physical contact type - behavioral sexual assault
For example:
· Forcing you to have sex with your genitals
· Others touching or kissing your private parts (both inside and outside of clothes) unnecessarily but intentionally
· Letting you touch his private parts
· Playing sexual games with you (such as "taking off pants", "touching each other")
2, non-physical contact - verbal sexual assault and visual sexual assault
For example:
· It is to expose yourself in front of children, invite children to peep and touch yourself
·, or to induce children to perform sexually suggestive actions through the Internet: letting you see his private parts, or asking to see your private parts, luring you to view pornographic information.
Tips:
In cases of non-physical sexual assault, criminals have increasingly used the Internet to commit crimes in recent years. There is a criminal case in which Zhang became the "boyfriend" of a young girl Xiaohong through online social networking. He first asked Xiaohong to chat naked (non-physical contact sexual assault), and then gradually developed into forcibly having sex with Xiaohong (physical contact type). Children should keep their eyes open when surfing the Internet, do not expose their bodies to each other, and do not believe each other's rhetoric.
Relevant laws and regulations
So in order to punish sexual assault, what laws and regulations has the country introduced?
1, " Criminal Law of the People's Republic of China "
· [Article 236: Rape] This law clearly states that "whoever rapes a young girl who is under the age of fourteen shall be treated as rape and shall be severely punished." Xiaohong in the case is under the age of fourteen and is a young girl, so Zhang must be severely punished according to the law.
· [Article 237: Crime of Forced Indecency and Insult] Forced indecency refers to the act of touching, kissing or hugging sensitive parts of the victim's body against the will of the victim to satisfy his or her own purposes.
Children should note that the victims here are not limited to women, men may also be sexually assaulted.
2, "Public Security Punishment Law of the People's Republic of China"
In addition, there are laws and regulations such as " Law of the People's Republic of China on the Protection of Minors ", "Law of the People's Republic of China on the Protection of Women's Rights and Interests" and other laws and regulations to protect our rights.
[Article 44 of the "Public Security Punishment Law of the People's Republic of China"] Anyone who molests others, or intentionally exposes his body in public places, and the circumstances are serious, shall be detained for not less than five days but not more than ten days; whoever molests intellectually disabled people, mentally ill people, people under the age of fourteen, or there are other serious circumstances, shall be detained for not less than ten days but not more than fifteen days.
