This week Insight delves inside the minds of the stalkers. Some experts suggest around one in five women are stalked in their lifetime. Stalkers tell host Jenny Brockie what they do and why they do it. Some are remorseful. Others aren’t. The program also hears from people who were stalked by former partners and by aggrieved clients. Psychologists and police join the discussion to give their view on whether stalkers can be reformed and whether the laws are adequate. (An SBS Production) CC

Speaking with medical professionals and guests from different cultures, Insight explores virginity: who's holding onto it, who can't wait to get rid of it, and who's trying to hide the fact that they do (or don't) have it any more.
