Every story has an end but in life, every end is just a new beginning.

I'm not surprised that such a study has been done. I mean, it makes sense to me that a woman is mentally ill if she finds that it is ok to be sexual with a young child. I think this type of mental illness is very close to those illnesses that are said to be genetic. And it's likely these female sexual predators are themselves victims of previous sexual assaults when they were children.
