    I have discussed with several abused women on the net. Most of them have been sexually open and even initiative. In that sense, the writer of this first message is not alone. And as far I know, child's sexual activity might be a symptom of abuse. The explanation I have heard is that it is the way an abused child has learned to get adult attention. It makes sense but is not sufficient.

    People are strange. For some reason they start to do things that hurt themselves. Violence causes more violence, not peace. Denying victim's sexual urges seems to cause just more shame. Still, victim should not (be let) act in ways that probably causes only more pain.

    I cannot understand this. I just can accept that this kind of contradictory phenomenon exists. I think the victims of abuse should have possibilities to share their experiences. Feeling pain is understandable for almost all of us. Shame and embarrassment are far more difficult to understand because what happened is not victim's fault. Maybe victims might have a mutual understanding of all this. They/we should have a possibility to talk about this without anyone how is trying to deny these feelings.

    I find its good to get things of ones chest. Thanks or sharing your story. There was certainly no need to carry the bourdon all these years. I wonder, have you told your husband?

    i know its hard but i guess it will make more easy for you if you will tell it to your parents even it was a long time ago and thats really bad,though if you learn to forgive him then let it go and move on and wish him that somehow he would ask forgiveness and never make it hard for yourself again and move on....

    OMG... you are such a strong woman, you deal with and have dealt with so much. I can't imagine how heart breaking this must have been for you especially someone so close to you. I would never judge a you for what others have done to you or the choices that you make after that... you are a good person and i have so much respect for your strength

    Wow. No, I didn't know that, and I'm sorry to hear it. Anyone who would judge a rape victim or be cruel to them is something I've never understood. Victims can't help what happened to them, so why judge them?

    Again, sorry to hear it. I hope you've healed in at least some way with the man you love in your life.

    I am sorry this happened to you, can´t imagine how hard it must have been to find balance after this. I can understand you didn´t wanted anyone to know, specially at that age is difficult to manage those situations, but you should have tell your parents about it, thought if you put me in the same situation I´ll probably would have done the same hidding behind something else approach. You are very brave by sharing this and seem to have come through it rather well.

    I'm so sorry, Honey. What a horrible ordeal. No young person should ever have to endure sexual abuse like this. 15? Your uncle should be in jail still. But I'm grateful that you were able to go on and get past this, and have a nice family. You win in the end.
