Abstract

The current use of Internet is determining changes as in what we do, as in our way of thinking, by changing the image that everyone has about himself, others and about the relationship with the world. In particular, the sex and sexuality of the twenty-first century appear amoung the aspects of human existence that are undergoing radical changes on the Network. In recent times, cybersex is developing more and more, degenerating sometimes into real computer mediated crimes. An example is the case of an housewife of 46 years old, involved in the process of marital separation, with a socio-cultural medium-low level, which is submitted to the attention of the Court for the involvement of underage children in her computer mediated erotic activities. This case shows the possibility that the experience of maximum control resulting from the use of the network, (which is characterized by accessibility, affordability, alteration of the identity, integrity, dissociation, interactivity, secrecy and normalization) will be transformed into a progressive and total loss of control of experiences produced by the use of computer, determining the commission of "real" illegal acts. This is one of the typical psychological paradoxes of the relationship between the mind and the advanced Information Technology.
