Contrary to opinions of a couple who shall remain nameless, I did NOT click the abuse button. I didn't even think of it actually

My remark wasn't intended to be abusive...I'm sorry it was interpreted that way.

In Halley's book Uncommon Therapy, Milton Erickson, perhaps the greatest Hypnotherapist/ Psychiatrist of all time, describes the actual, noticeable changes that occur in a female on 1, first unprotected sexual intercourse, and 2, continuing sexual intercourse.

A mere comparison of the 'Before' and 'After' photographs reveals this...it is obvious to the trained eye.

And, given that most abducted children don't survive 9 hours after being snached, my question about 'resistance/cooperation' would seem to be apt.

Well, since you've already had at least one post pulled, I suggest you might want to rethink your "enlightened" opinions.

Sorry, but extrapolating the claims of one published shrink into allegations of fact about the intimate life of a particular young girl is an exercise in prurience, not scientific facts. Even if this guy had any empirical data to back up his assertions, it would be based on averages and norms, from which individuals can vary hugely. Case in point -- I was quite voluptuous looking at age 10; by age 11 I wore the largest bra size I've ever worn (have never hit that size again); by my late 20's I weighed 102 pounds, fit girls' size 12 clothes perfectly, and had no real need for a bra at all. Guess what happened in between those two ages?

If I were you, I'd spend more time researching the works of folks who have dealt with cult victims...

Put aside the Elizabeth Smart case for a second. I've never heard before that sexual activity can chage physical appearance. Is this for real?!
