Many studies have shown that preadolescent children engage in non-coital sexual behaviors such as genital touching, exploring bodies, or playing games like "doctor." This behavior is seen as a natural part of sexual development.

Answer: D

B and C are not supported by studies of sexual behavior. Children aged two to five may indeed show their genitals as a natural part of curiosity and exploration, and orgasm can occur in some individuals before the development of secondary sex characteristics.
