>”That was once thought. But studies done since 20 years ago show about 1 in 10 male victims go on to abuse. 10% is not often.”

Well this article says that studies show that one-third of those abused as children go on to abuse. That IS often.

It’s sn important topic for me being a survivor of this atrocity. And it is not as often as you’d think according to medical reports.

And again. That article was from the late 80’s when their belief was the % was higher. As I indicated in my post. As they’ve researched further I over the past 20 years, they have found the numbers to be far less.

10% or 33%, it is still too often. It should never happen.
