Well, considering these statistics, I would say a good number of children who are sexually abused do not become homosexual. * 1 in 4 girls is sexually abused before the age of 18. * 1 in 6 boys is sexually abused before the age of 18. * 1 in 5 children are solicited sexually while on the internet. * Nearly 70% of all reported sexual assaults (including assaults on adults) occur to children ages 17 and under. * An estimated 39 million survivors of childhood sexual abuse exist in America today. [ link to www.darkness2light.org] No one is saying ALL children who are molested become homosexual, btw those numbers are very disturbing and sad True, we would need to find similar statistics for homosexuals and see if more than 1 in 4 lesbians and more than 1 in 6 gay males, have been sexually abused. I don't have any links or facts in hand, but I don't think there is a higher prevalence of abuse in homosexuals. You will probably find similar rates of abuse across the board.
