Don't tell : the sexual abuse of boys / Michel Dorais ; translated by Isabel Denholm Meyer.
Don't Tell examines the effects of sexual abuse on the emotional and sexual life of men, including their sense of self and their personal relationships. Using first-hand accounts, Dorais shows that certain reactions are specific to male victims as they attempt to preserve their physical integrity and conceptions of masculinity.
