Hauptmann 1975,p.42-43

[1975,p.42-43] The Austrian criminologist Dr. Walter Hauptmann mentioned several examples "of the common absence of serious psychological troubles after paedophile contacts". Even among boy prostitutes "there was no evidence of any link between hetero- or homosexual experiences of the child and later deviancy." The "commonly accepted fiction of nearly omnipresent 'lasting damage' and 'aftereffects' from sexual experiences" has "for long time now no longer been acceptable." (Brongersma,p.21)
