The problem as I see it is the term sex offender.
It's one thing to so label sexual predators, but a streaker?
This society is completely childish when it comes to all things sexual.
I work with a registered sex offender.
20 years ago, he was in college, he had too much Corona, and he took a whiz in someone's shrubbery. As a result, he was convicted of indecent exposure and will be a registered sex offender forever.
And thus the problem with Sex Offender Registries - they lump in the guys taking a whiz and the 18 year olds having sex with their 16 year old girlfriends in with the rapists and pedophiles.
Yes this is a definite problem with the law. I dont understand why more exacting differentiation is not made. Someone who streaks a ball game or gets drunk and pisses in public is quite different than someone who is sexually exposing himself to women or kids or who is committing indecent exposure in public, especially to the point of being considered a sexual deviant or sex offender. Something needs to be done to alter the law.
