Survive Sexual Abuse Launched

[anthony]

Here is an excerpt from the sites homepage, which I believe answers the question:

Who Should Be Here?
You should be here if you're a male or female and are being or have endured:

- Attempted rape.
- Incest.
- Sexual abuse.
- Sexual assault.
- Raped or gang raped.

You should also be here if you're a partner, family or friend of someone who has endured a sexual act without consent.

Approximately 10% of all rape victims are male, contrary to the belief males don't get raped.

Definitions
Rape - The crime of forcing another person to submit to sex acts, especially sexual intercourse.

Sexual Abuse - The forcing of unwanted sexual activity by one person on another, as by the use of threats or coercion, and/or sexual activity that is deemed improper or harmful, as between an adult and a minor or with a person of diminished mental capacity.

Sexual Assault - Conduct of a sexual or indecent nature toward another person that is accompanied by actual or threatened physical force or that induces fear, shame, or mental suffering.

Child sexual abuse is a form of child abuse in which an adult or older adolescent uses a child for sexual stimulation. Forms of child sexual abuse include asking or pressuring a child to engage in sexual activities, indecent exposure of the genitals to a child, displaying pornography to a child, actual sexual contact against a child, physical contact with the child's genitals, viewing of the child's genitalia without physical contact, or using a child to produce child pornography.

Ok... I have nearly completed the new install, have imported previous users and their forum content. I still have to bring the diary content over for the handful of entries made, along with a few admin aspects.... otherwise it should be ready to go live again tomorrow.

As stated previously, it is completely unfinished, a beta software product at present, not styled and has default content in areas. CB and I will progressively update the site and make changes as we both learn it more. Most of what we had previously written is all useless, as it was based on this software, not the new one. That stuff can be sorted out though on the fly as the site is only new and won't be demanding, so plenty of time exists to correct and perfect the site as it goes.

Hello,
A little technical question - maybe a stupid one: the user for PTSD forum is not 'universal', is it? What I mean to ask: do you need a new user for this site?

Thank you.

You need to join the sexual abuse site, in the same way you joined this one. You can choose a different user name, or the same - choice is yours.

Adding further to CB's comments, the reason I haven't integrated site logins is because the sites are vastly different and those who participate here, do not all have PTSD from sexual abuse. Then you have those who have been sexually abused, and the majority don't have PTSD, as its a minority who obtain PTSD from abnormal trauma. The combat site is then isolated purely to combat vets and their partners, family.

I thought about it, but honestly I don't feel that having multiple site logins will be in the best interest of each site, as that would encourage some bad behaviour from some who shouldn't be on one site, but should another.
