I often wonder if an experience in my childhood could be considered to be "Sexual Abuse." It might not have been intended, but I feel it had some damaging effects on me.
I was introduced to masturbation by friends when I was 10 yrs old. I believe i may have been scarred by this because it was,secretly,a trauma and a shock to me. I was totally innocent, and i had no knowledge of sex. I had no idea that people did anything other than pee with a penis. In addition, I was extremely under-developed and pre-pubescent at that time. I was about an inch and a half long with no pubic hair. my best friend was 13 or 14 yrs old and he had a huge dick with a lot of hair. he must have been 10 or 12 inches and very thick. I didn't understand at the time but to ge accepted, i played along. I felt very innadequate in comparison to them.
I went home after that and worked very hard to be able to cum like them. I finally did it.
I still think this had a damaging effect on me even now. More on self-esteem and self-image than anything.. It didn't effect my sexuality,my sexually functioning, or my appetite.
I think this was borderline sexual abuse, even if it wasn't his intention. Also, there wasn't a big gap in our ages. There was a huge difference in our development, maturity, and knowledge.
in addition, he lived in an alcoholic home, with a lot of older brothers and sisters. It's possible that he was violated or exposed to inappropriate behavior and was passing it on.
If anyone is qualified to give me an answer, I would appreciate it
