“…In its brochure, the foundation equates a child's “sexual activity with an adult” (p. 2) with serious threats to one's life, rape, military combat, natural or accidental disasters, and torture in terms of traumatic impact. One of the Dallam et al coauthors separately has compared CSA to head injuries from a car accident (Spiegel, 2000b, in press). If these dramatic analogies provided by mental health professionals are valid, then it should follow that in any population sampled—drug addicts, psychiatric patients, or college students—persons who have experienced CSA should show strong evidence of the assumed properties of CSA (even if some populations show stronger evidence than others).…”

“…Dallam et al (2001) repeatedly encased consent and willing in quotation marks and questioned our use of this construct more vigorously in their other critiques (e.g., Dallam et al, 1999; Spiegel, 2000a, 2000b, in press). Their position is that consent is not possible because CSA is immoral, and therefore scientific use of consent is invalid; Spiegel (2000a) called such use a “moral outrage” (p. 66).…”

The authors respond to 2 victimological critiques of their 1998 meta-analysis on child sexual abuse (CSA). S. J. Dallam et al. (2001) claimed that B. Rind, P. Tromovitch, and R. Bauserman (1998) committed numerous methodological and statistical errors, and often miscoded and misinterpreted data. The authors show all these claims to be invalid. To the contrary, they demonstrate frequent bias in Dallam et al.'s criticisms. S. J. Ondersma et al. (2001) claimed that Rind et al.'s study is part of a backlash against psychotherapists, that its suggestions regarding CSA definitions were extrascientific, and that the moral standard is needed to understand CSA scientifically. The authors show their suggestions to have been scientific and argue that it is Ondersma et al.'s issue-framing and moral standard that are extrascientific. This reply supports the original methods, analyses, recommendations, and conclusions of Rind et al.

This study explores the existing practice of female circumcision among the ethnic Madurese in the East Java province of Indonesia. The practice has long been believed to be part of the Islamization process as well as protecting the cultural traditions of the ethnic society in Madura. This study aimed to investigate two major issues: the prevalence of female circumcision in three districts on Madura Island, using a quantitative survey; and the cultural construction of female sexuality, using a qualitative method focused on observations and in-depth interviews with women, community leaders, and religious teachers. The findings of this study show that a greater number of females have been circumcised from as early as infants (under the age of one) to those in adolescence. The traditional views on the female body and sexuality have strongly influenced the continuity of the cultural practice. Moreover, observational analysis showed that Madurese society continues to believe that women who identify as Muslims are required to be circumcised. Women who are not circumcised are considered to have betrayed their religious, ethnic, and cultural identities. Furthermore, women cannot refuse or ask not to be circumcised, as many traditional families and religious leaders believe that the practice is required to purify the woman's body and her sexuality.
