Empirical knowledge about child sexual behaviour is not gathered by direct interviews of children, but almost exclusively by observations of third persons and by retrospective narrations, because the topic is taboo. Additionally, despite (or perhaps because of) public interest about the topic of child sexual abuse, research about child sexuality nearly stopped during the 1980s and 1990s.

| | | | Child sexuality: Encyclopedia II - Child sexuality - Conclusions Due to the socially defined nature of human behavior it is difficiult to scientifically define what "normal" child sexuality would be.
