INTRODUCTION
Increasing numbers of academic researchers and clinicians have suggested that conducts
scenes") constitute subtle kinds of sexual abuse that formerly have gone unrecognized
(Atteberry-Bennett, 1987; Bolton, Morris and MacEachron, 1989; cf. Bottfield, 1992;
Conte, mentioned in Best, 1990; Haynes-Seman and Krugman, 1989; Kritsberg, 1993; Krug,
Such subtle sexual abuse referred to as syndromes like "motherly seductiveness," "emotional incest syndrome,"
"Mental sexual abuse," "secret sexual abuse," and "sexualized attention" - may also
Contain less easily defined behaviours such as parent "flirtatiousness," or unsuitable and
As Okami (1995) suggested, nevertheless, such concern is not fresh. That's, although these
"syndromes" have lately entered the discussion on sexual abuse, some of the behaviours
that constitute them have long held places in the pantheon of improper parenting
practices. For example, two decades ago, Esman (1973) found that only one of these
practices - exposure of the child to primal pictures - has been indicted in 75 years of
psychoanalytic, psychiatric, and psychological literature as the main etiologic agent in
virtually every type of child and adult pathology. Nevertheless, Esman reasoned that, "One
is transferred to wonder whether we are here confronted with one of those situations in which
a theory, by explaining everything, triumphs in describing nothing" (pp. 64-65).
In the current article we report results of the first longitudinal investigation of long-term
Behaviours such as parent
flirtatiousness and inappropriate displays of physical affection were not analyzed
because at the time the study was conceived (early 1970s) few, if any, commentators
considered such behaviors to be seriously debatable.
Data bearing on the question of long term consequences of the variants in question are
exceedingly short, although speculative theories - frequently framed as authoritative
pronouncements of fact - are simple to come by (Okami, 1995). For

empirical posts have addressed the dilemma of childhood exposure to parent and other
Mature nudity: Lewis and Janda (1988); Oleinick et al. (1966); and Narrative (1979). In several
other cases, illustrative, self-report studies of societal naturist or other groups practicing

of this work is antialarmist, representing childhood exposure to nudity as benign.
Apart from these provisional attempts to accumulate data, writings on this subject consist of
theory-driven clinical opinion and comments by kid-rearing specialists. In contrast
to the above-mentioned empirical work, the clinical writings commonly reflect the belief
that exposure to nudity may be stabbing as an outcome of (i) untimely and excessive
stimulation in a way controlled by the grownup, leaving the kid feeling powerless; (ii)
the kid's unfavorable comparison between his or her own human body and the grownup's; or
(iii) the intensification of Oedipal want and consequent anxiety (Baruch, 1959, additionally
cited in Lewis and Janda, 1988, p. 350; DeCecco and Shively, 1977; Justice and Justice,
Given the vehemence with which clinicians and child-rearing specialists often condemn
Youth exposure to parental nudity, it is paradoxical that their dire forecasts are not
supported by the (short) empirical work that does exist.

Equivocal as to interpretation, and there is even the implication of possible positive
benefits in these studies (especially for boys) in domains for example self-reported relaxation
with physical affection (Lewis and Janda, 1988) and positive "body self concept" (Story,
1979). Although these investigations are methodologically small, their results are
consistent with the view of a smaller group of child-rearing specialists and other
