good warning for young men to avoid sexual abuse

I read this book a few years ago as part of a class assignment. I choose this book without knowing if I was going to like it. When I compared this book with other books on the same subject of sexual abuse on children, I think it is a well written book. It goes to the point without being nasty or melodramatic (as a couple of books on sexual abuse on female children written by women). I believe it can prevent sexual abuse on young men if this book is read by potential victims. This book could accomplish a social favor to society by being distributed among young people. Unfortunately I do not know any book as good as this written by women relating their sexual abuse.

THE FIRST STEP TO BEGIN MY RECOVERY BEGAN WITH THIS BOOK

This book opened my eyes to my past that my mind had blocked out. I now understand why I have done and still do some of the things I don't want to do. I was able to see what I had lost and what was taken from me. Most of my life I was seeking an illusion now therre is some reality in my life. I am not a freek I was robbed of more than my innocance I lost most of my life. Freedom is possiable and I now know there is more hope than I ever thought there was. Buy the book and get free. I have even bought this book for some friends so they can see that they (we) are not alone in (our) their pain
