Mother to Many
I agree that molestation is not always the cause of promiscuity, but in MOST instances it IS the result. Also, I know a lot of women who never had a positive male influence/loving father in their life and it has caused them to be quite promiscuous.
I don't think it is the case in most cases. I personally know a couple of people who have been victims of sexual abuse, both a male and 2 females, and neither of these 3 that I personally have knowledge of ever were promiscuous or acted out in any fashion such as this. People deal with it differently, and not all or even most are going to turn to promiscuity. To say that most do this would be like if I said this:
I know a girl who was molested by a man who was her step-father when she was 12 to 15 years of age. She did not "tell" to avoid being tortured by him as her younger brother was. Once it all came out and she grew up and left the home, she became a lesbian. So therefore, most girls who are abused by men turn to becoming lesbians...You see this is not a rational train of thought. Just because some or even many do it, does not mean that "most" do...:waitasec:
