More often than not stories are surfacing of rapes of young boys. Not just stories involving the church. But  of  boys being victimized and  betrayed by women closest to them. Women they trust or even love.  For myself it was a family member. At the age seven I learned far too much about the birds and the bees.  It was of the most descriptive nature. I was shown and expected to do things I was afraid to do and knew were wrong .  What I didn’t know, I was taught and threaten if I told anyone. The “affair” went on for some time. Until I was finally separated from my abuser. This incident would mark and distort my view of sex and my own sexuality forever. We try and teach our sons to treat women with respect and that they are not pieces of meat for our pleasure. What of our daughters? This “affair” would be only the first of many  encounters with sex abuse I would have by men and women of all ages. Until this behavior became as normal to me as ridding a bike. In turn my thoughts would dwell on this and the beginning of my own string of sex abuse victims at the age of ten. Sex  can easily be abused or even turned into an addition and ruin lives forever. With the introduction of the Internet it couldn’t be easer. In my town there is a sex offender list and someone moves with in a mile of my home I get e-mailed. The number would scare you of how many there are. Both men and women. I have a wife who I have shared everything with. I don’t hate these people for what they did to me, maybe pity but not hate. I understand and have gotten help from other victims.  In many , many years of marriage I have never cheated on my wife. The fact is the world is a sick place and getting sicker by the minute. When you can find web sites showing people how to steal a child there’s a big problem. But for other victims of sex abuse who don’t get help the future may be grim. Often times I would bury my sham and guilt , in drinking and drugs Thinking some how it was my doing.  It never helped the pain was still there. Until I decided to deal with it. If you have been a victim of sexual abuse get help , No one causes someone else to abuse them. What do I think should be done with all sex abusers? I let you make up your own mind.
