Manage episode 441836099 series 2950640
You might be shocked to hear a third of child sexual abuse is perpetrated by another child...
It's not the stereotype that comes to mind when this topic gets brought up, but it's what happened to Shannon Molloy from the age of five...
An accomplished journalist and author, Shannon investigated male child sexual abuse for his book 'You Made Me This Way', interviewing experts and other survivors in an attempt to better understand his own trauma.
Viciously tormented by bullies over his sexuality during his school days, Shannon's younger years were coloured by shame, secrecy and self-loathing. Despite always having felt broken in some way, he's gone on to create happy life for himself and his family, while building a successful career and bringing crucial light to ugly issues that've been in the dark for too long.
