Do homosexuals disproportionately molest children? A survey of 8 of the nation's newspaper news stories of child molestation during the first 9 months of 1995 showed that about 40% of child molestation stories in the major cities involve homosexuality. An Internet survey of FirstSearch for 1989 through 1995 indicated 46%, and of Newsbank for 1990 through 1995 60% of molestations were homosexual. About half of teachers, day care workers and other professionals caught molesting children assaulted them homosexually. It is argued that large unbiased sets of newspaper news stories appear to approximate the figures for incidence of child molestation by those occupying a newsworthy status but overreport homosexual molestation in general.
同性恋者对儿童进行性骚扰的比例是否过高?一项对1995年前9个月全国8家报纸关于儿童性骚扰新闻报道的调查显示,大城市中约40%的儿童性骚扰报道涉及同性恋。一项对1989年至1995年FirstSearch的互联网调查显示这一比例为46%,对1990年至1995年Newsbank的调查则显示60%的性骚扰是同性恋行为。大约一半被抓到对儿童进行性骚扰的教师、日托工作者和其他专业人员是同性侵犯儿童。有人认为,大量无偏见的报纸新闻报道似乎接近那些具有新闻价值的人对儿童性骚扰的发生率,但总体上对同性恋性骚扰的报道存在过度夸大。
