Questão jurídica principal
Whether the conduct constituted an act of a sexual nature under Art. 187 CP.
Decisão extraída
Yes. A seven-year-old child sucking the mother's breasts while she caressed him, including the genitals, had a clearly sexual connotation for a neutral observer.
Fundamentação extraída
Acts are assessed objectively; in ambiguous cases all circumstances matter. Here the act lost any maternal meaning by age seven and was reinforced by the mother's caresses.
