			:::''"A sex offense is a sexual act or type of conduct frequently considered obscene that have been legislated to be illegal."''

			*1) A sex offense does not have to be a sexual act.
			*2) It is clumsy and very poor English to refer to a sex offense as "a type of conduct".
			*3) "Frequently considered" does not indicate either the frequency or by whom it is considered.
			*4) "Obscene" is a moral evaluation, and the definition varies.
			*5) The phrase, "...that have been legislated to be..." is very poor English.
