这篇文章探讨了女孩和年轻女性的性行为过去和现在是如何在社会工作中被建构和回应的。当代的儿童观认为年轻人在性方面是无辜的,缺乏(性)能动性。此外,性虐待的经历被认为是创伤性的,并导致长期的不良生活经历。这样的叙述可以影响社会工作者如何看待和应对虐待,以及涉及年轻人的性活动是否被理解为虐待。根据经济与社会研究委员会(ESRC)资助的不同但相关的项目,这篇文章介绍了在对吉米·萨维尔(Jimmy Savile)提出指控的学校居住的女孩的叙述。然后,它考虑了对成年女性参与儿童期性虐待(CSA)康复文献的研究,并从中得出了对英国城镇(如罗瑟勒姆)性剥削案件的回应方式的联系。这两个例子都挑战了对CSA的主流理解,提出了关于女孩能动性的问题,但也提出了性经历如何消除保护女孩免受虐待的责任的问题。我们认为,在社会工作者如何应对此类问题时,将不法行为与伤害区分开来是有价值的。
This article explores how girls’ and young women’s sexual behaviours have been and currently are constructed and responded to within social work. Contemporary views of childhood consider young people as sexually innocent and lacking (sexual) agency. Moreover, the experience of sexual abuse is believed to be traumatic and to result in long-term adverse life experiences. Such narratives can influence how social workers perceive and respond to abuse and indeed whether sexual activities involving young people are understood as abusive. Drawing on different but related Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC)-funded projects, the article introduces narratives of girls who were resident at the school where allegations against Jimmy Savile originate from. It then considers research looking at adult women’s engagement with the childhood sexual abuse (CSA) recovery literature and draws links from this to the ways in which cases of sexual exploitation in UK towns such as Rotherham are responded to. Both examples challenge dominant understandings of CSA, raising questions of girls’ agency, but also of how sexual experience might act to remove a responsibility to protect girls from abuse. We argue that there is merit in separating out wrongfulness from harm in how social workers respond to such issues.
