    There is a high percentage of all people who were molested as children. Dorothy Allison makes two good points: One, if rape and sexual abuse were causes for lesbianism, there would be a whole lot more lesbians, and, two, if we really believe that lesbianism is bad and that cruel men cause lesbianism, why aren’t we more concerned about men mistreating their daughters? The fact is that childhood abuse is a problem across the board, and while there may be a (very) few cases in which it is the “cause” of homosexuality, it is more likely that sexual orientation is inherent.
