Women, young men and children are all vulnerable to abuse. However, the sexual abuse of young men is rarely mentioned. It usually occurs within the home and school environments. Alarmingly, in most instances of abuse, the abuser is known by the victim and the victim’s family. There are many reasons that have been out forward to explain the instances of abuse, but often it is said that abuse takes place because of societal pressures on men to be the stronger sex. The extent to which culture/ religion plays a part in sexual abuse is not known, and apart from that we still have a number of questions that need to be answered. Is government doing enough to protect young men and women against sexual abuse? Are there enough community awareness projects dealing with both male and female sexual abuse? Do we have enough information on the signs, symptoms, causes and effects of sexual abuse on the victims?
