This report presents narrative data of adult men self-identifying as victims of sexual abuse occurring in childhood or adolescence (CSA). Preliminary data were derived from written public stories posted by men to the Internet (n = 90). Many of these accounts indicate same-sex sexual abuse (male victim, male perpetrator). The primary research question: “how have adult male victims of childhood sexual abuse constructed written narratives of victimization?” The men in this study who posted public narratives about their sexual abuse demonstrated evidence in of two (turmoil and taking control) of six life course themes uncovered by Draucker and Martsolf (2010). Two temporally related additional subthemes emerged within the category “taking control”: during the abusive event/relationship and after abuse in adulthood. Understanding how male victims organize and make sense of the trajectory of their victim and/or survivor identity may contribute to a more integrated healing for victims. This could also shape programs for outreach and support. The result of the study would aid in the development of diagnostic tools and frameworks for interviewing abuse victims who are not publicly presenting or formally reporting their stories.

本报告介绍了成年男性自我认定为儿童或青春期 (CSA) 性虐待受害者的叙述性数据。初步数据来自男性在互联网上发布的书面公开故事（n = 90)。其中许多账户表明同性性虐待（男性受害者，男性施暴者）。主要研究问题：“儿童期性虐待的成年男性受害者如何构建受害的书面叙述？” 在这项研究中，发布关于他们性虐待的公开叙述的男性在 Draucker 和 Martsolf (2010) 发现的六个生命历程主题中的两个（动荡和控制）中提供了证据。在“控制”类别中出现了两个与时间相关的附加子主题：在虐待事件/关系期间和成年期虐待之后。了解男性受害者如何组织和理解他们的受害者和/或幸存者身份的轨迹可能有助于对受害者进行更综合的治疗。这也可能影响外展和支持计划。
