Entre amores invis??veis e silenciados : hist??rias de abusadoras sexuais na cidade de Pelotas (RS)

A an??lise das motiva????es femininas que levam ao cometimento do abuso sexual constitui o foco central deste trabalho, tendo como pano de fundo os elementos s??ciohist??ricos e culturais que pudessem estar presentes na constru????o das subjetividades de homens e mulheres que abusam sexualmente. Para tal empreendimento, utilizou-se como recursos metodol??gicos, a hist??ria oral de vida e tem??tica, bem como a an??lise documental de procedimentos formais, porquanto o abuso sexual de crian??as e adolescentes ?? considerado crime pelo ordenamento jur??dico brasileiro. Desse modo, a observa????o do tratamento dispensado pelos sistemas de prote????o e de responsabiliza????o penal tamb??m esteve presente, assim como as mudan??as ocorridas na legisla????o brasileira e, ainda, a hist??ria familiar dos abusadores e das abusadoras que tomaram parte deste estudo. Identifica-se que n??o h?? maiores diferen??as de motiva????o enquanto homem ou mulher, contudo, mesmo que a lei penal tenha tentado adequar-se ??s mudan??as hist??ricas e sociais do pa??s, ela parece que n??o consegue ainda dar tratamento igualit??rio a homens e mulheres que cometem abuso sexual. Tornam-se ??s mulheres invis??veis diante da lei, n??o sendo reconhecidas como capazes de perpetrar viol??ncias. H??, entretanto, uma severa censura moral que as confina ao mundo privado, reafirmando um pressuposto hist??rico de que as mulheres devem manter-se presas ?? casa e aos cuidados da fam??lia, deixando as transgress??es no ambiente p??blico para os homens, reconhecidos como capazes de produzir viol??ncia.The analysis of women s motivations that lead to committing sexual abuse is the central focus of this project, having as background, social historical and cultural construction of subjectivities of men and women that sexually abuse. For such an achievement, methodological resources of an oral history of life and theme were used, as well as a documentary analysis of formal procedures, considering that the sexual abuse of children and adolescents is considered crime by the Brazilian Law. Thus, the observation of treatment exempted by the protective systems and of criminal responsibility was also present, as well as the changes occurred in the Brazilian legislation and the family history of abusers that took part in this study. Identifying, there are no major differences in motivation as for men or women that commit sexual abuse, however even if the criminal law has tried to adjust to the historical and social changes of the country, it seems to not be able to give equal treatment to men and women who commit sexual abuse. The women become invisible before the law, not being recognized as capable of perpetrating violence. There is however a severe moral censure that confine them to a private world, reaffirming a historical assumption that women should stay locked indoors and take care of the family, leaving the transgressions of the public environment to the men, known to be capable of producing violence
