Solution

The statement "their offences are planned" is not one of the features of regressed child molesters.

Here's why:

  1. Regressed child molesters are typically individuals whose sexual interest in children begins in adulthood, often triggered by stress or difficulties in their adult relationships. This is true.

  2. Their offenses are usually not planned, but rather opportunistic and impulsive, often occurring when the individual is under stress or experiencing difficulties in their adult relationships. So, the statement "their offences are planned" is not true.

  3. While they may target children of either gender, there is no specific preference for female children. So, the statement "female children are their primary targets" is not necessarily true.

  4. Their primary sexual orientation is towards adults, but they may turn to children as a substitute when adult relationships become problematic. This is true.

  5. They are often married and are having marital problems. This is also true.

So, the correct answer is "their offences are planned".
