does sexual shit to a kid abuses them grooms them um is manipulating the shit out of them that kid goes and does it with somebody else his age or younger right and that's kind of one way that this goes and then I think what you have on the opposite end um because you know CSA is profoundly traumatizing to kids based on like the literature that I present in the book like
Yeah, it shatters their perception of what normal is. You're talking, exactly, and you're talking about anxiety, depression. You're talking about the development of PTSD at some point. PTSD is common among male survivors of CSA. How could it not be? And you're like, it fucks you up as a kid.

And so you either end up perpetrating the behavior, and again, I'm not an expert, but this is what I'm speculating, is you end up continuing the behavior to somebody else Or you end up on this path, kind of like me, where it's like, that was really fucked up. I don't like that.

And wherever you go from that branch, I mean, if you're able to get through without having brushes with substance abuse or anything like that, kind of like Seth did, then great. But a lot of times you have male survivors that... they become alcoholics. I think some of the stats that I had in the research prop, they're like 11.1 times more likely to become intravenous drug users.

I mean, you're more, you're more likely across the board for substance use development.

Yeah. Yeah. And just all sorts of psychiatric disorders.
Yeah. Yeah. And just all sorts of psychiatric disorders.
Yeah. Yeah. And just all sorts of psychiatric disorders.
Right. Yeah. And then if you add that to, you have an abusive home, I mean, it's just, it's such a damning issue. And to kind of get back to it, like, Yeah, I mean, I don't know. I don't know how you stop that necessarily. You test to see if a shotgun fits in their mouth. Pretty much, yeah.

Yeah, and that's the thing, too, is as a survivor of this shit, knowing that somebody probably preyed on him and that's how this happened to me. Um, you can test the shotgun in their mouth too. I mean, in an ideal world, uh, where firing squads are real. Oh no, you don't need a firing squad. This is just one person. Okay. Fair enough. Fair enough.
