“One area where this misperception has hit hard has been research on child sexual abuse. Despite an explosion of research on the issue over recent decades, most research reported in the literature is focused on girls. There is significantly less attention given to boys, and, in fact, prior to 1980 it is difficult to find any research involving males who have been sexually abused.” ResearchSurvivorSexual AbuseMale SurvivorMale Sexual AbuseMale RapeMale Victim Author:Jan L.

“If women are to achieve sexual dominance it may be that female abusers are even more skilful than their male counterparts. It might also mean that female intimate abusers use different tactics and have different goals than the male abuser. What I have found is that the effect of female intimate abuse is different and that male victims and survivors seem to need a different response. Male victims need safety and options but they are denied these supports as the community treats male victims with an even greater degree of blame than it applies to female victims.” SocietyAbuseBlameMale VictimSocial Attitudes Book:How He Gets Into Her Head: The Mind of the Male Intimate Abuser Source: How He Gets Into Her Head: The Mind of the Male Intimate Abuser
