This is a serious question. Have you ever been seriously abused as a child? Sexually? Emotionally? Physically? Prejudicially? How has it affected you?


I came across an interesting statistic:

^And it's only sexually

My dad has physically, mentally, and emotionally abused everyone in the house.

No

No. I'm lucky that I grew up in a happy family.

Nope, and I'm lucky for that.

yes sexually and i honestly think thats why im gay since it was men and i was to young to of even thought about sex

One in three? That can't be right
And no, I grew up in a good family

i was abused by my father emotionally, verbally and physically.( my mom too) thats why my mom left her and sometimes my big brother abuses me verbally and physically, like my father too. but i've moved on and im in college so they cant hurt me anymore, i think that's one of the reasons why im bi. i never had a decent male role model to look up to, but that's just me

yes, emotionally

that's why I always feel angry now

I got beat but nothing serious.

nope

Yes, Emotionally

Not yall blaming being gay on being abused

Yes, emotionally and a little bit physically. Because of that I'm a very angry, lonely, hateful person.

i dont know. childhood is hard for me to remember

Aww I feel the same way too

How sad, I am so sorry for y'all.

Even though my dad was military I was lucky to have a very peaceful home, my dad would be so ashamed if he ever laid a hand on my mother or I.

I was never abused but my father was abused physically as a child, he lost his mother when he was just 4 years old and his stepmom was horrible, he always tells us stories about his sad childhood.
