"I couldn’t do it to a kid knowing what it did to me" : The narratives of male sexual abuse victims’ resiliency to sexually offending - Sage, 2016 - International Journal of Offender Therapy and Comparative Criminology .

Research has shown that child sexual abuse victims are overrepresented among sexual abuse offenders, leading to the sexually abused-sexual abuser hypothesis. However, a large proportion of child sexual abuse victims do not go on to sexually offend, and such individuals are labeled as resilient victims. Surprisingly few studies have looked at why some male victims of sexual abuse do not go on to offend. In-depth qualitative interviews were conducted with 47 resilient men in New Zealand focusing on their beliefs as to why they had not gone on to sexually abuse others. Record #4622
