Abstract: | This article explores the clinical dimensions of male child sexual abuse, and its effects upon these children in their adult lives. The number of men receiving therapeutic help for their sexually abusive past is unknown. Prevalence figures are equally elusive, but reporting of this abuse has steadily increased over the last decade. The majority of these children never tell anyone about their sexual victimization, and enter their adulthoods with long-term psychological difficulties. A short-term psycho/educational model is presented in order that more clinicians will treat this vastly underserved population.This article is dedicated to Marion Dragoon, with special thanks to Len Solomon, James Garland, and the staff of St. Luke's. |
