The analysis of women s motivations that lead to committing sexual abuse is the central focus of this project, having as background, social historical and cultural construction of subjectivities of men and women that sexually abuse. For such an achievement, methodological resources of an oral history of life and theme were used, as well as a documentary analysis of formal procedures, considering that the sexual abuse of children and adolescents is considered crime by the Brazilian Law. Thus, the observation of treatment exempted by the protective systems and of criminal responsibility was also present, as well as the changes occurred in the Brazilian legislation and the family history of abusers that took part in this study. Identifying, there are no major differences in motivation as for men or women that commit sexual abuse, however even if the criminal law has tried to adjust to the historical and social changes of the country, it seems to not be able to give equal treatment to men and women who commit sexual abuse. The women become invisible before the law, not being recognized as capable of perpetrating violence. There is however a severe moral censure that confine them to a private world, reaffirming a historical assumption that women should stay locked indoors and take care of the family, leaving the transgressions of the public environment to the men, known to be capable of producing violence.
