[QUOTE="Blessed Mama, post: 448603, member: 12458"] You can add me to the list of people who does not feel that there had to be sexual abuse for your daughter to be hypersexual and promiscuous. I have a friend who I have known since the beginning of high school who was very sexual, beginning at an early age (she's shared stories of playing doctor with friends when she was 5 - and really enjoying it), and who frequently fell 'in love' and bounced between boyfriends. She was also frequently unfaithful, and still has severe issues maintaining a healthy relationship, and I know she was never sexually abused. I also have known many victims of sexual abuse (my mother was a foster parent for a number of years when I was growing up), and things could go both ways. Some did seem to seek out sexual experiences more often, and others were 'typical' or avoided it. My own daughter was inappropriately touched by a family friend, and has expressed feeling very uncomfortable at the thought of any physical intimacy, especially with boys. She recently told me she's a lesbian, but before the assault took place, she was very interested in having boyfriends, and liked and dated boys. So I don't know if that violation has impacted her sexual preference, or if she just felt comfortable enough to 'come out'. [/QUOTE]
