First male sexual abuse service Clinic26 opens in London

Of the 20 areas we covered in our 2015 general election manifesto, where the human rights of men and/or boys are assaulted by the actions and/or inactions of the state, the lengthiest section (7 pages) was devoted to sexual abuse (pp.31-7). An extract from the first of the seven pages:

Few women are held accountable for sex offences, including those women who sexually abuse children. It’s known from a major American survey (details below) that slightly over 25% of sex offences are committed by women against men (with no male accomplices).

We would therefore expect the male/female ratio of people charged with sex offences to be a little under 3:1. In the UK, in 2013, the ratio was 146:1.

Our thanks to Jeff for some good news, the opening of the first male sexual abuse clinic in London.

If everyone who read this gave us just £1 – or even better, £1 monthly – we could change the world. Click here to make a difference. Thanks.

  1. Since this will be funded by tax dollars and since men pay the lions share of those axes it looks like males will be paying for BOTH clinics now; the women’s and the mens!

  2. This is good news. We have to be a bit cautious about figures on sexual abuse and domestic violence, etc. My feeling is that most of these phenomena are pretty much 50/50, and any variation from that is the result of differences in reporting and recording. Otherwise, it is necessary to identify some mechanism which explains the difference, and I don’t think there is one.
