Research suggests that HIV-negative individuals with an STI may be at increased risk of becoming infected with HIV through anal sex, vaginal sex, frontal sex (a term used by some trans people to refer to sex using genitals on the front of the body) and oral sex. 1 But how do STIs increase someoneâs risk of HIV infection?
Every 10 seconds a child is abused or raped. 3.3 million child abuse reports in 2010. For every report 2 more go unreported = many millions abused annually. 61,000 reports to Child Protective services per week = 6 per minute.
How many children witness the abuse of their mothers? Studies show that 3-4 million children between the ages of 3-17 are at risk of exposure to domestic violence each year. U.S. government statistics say that 95% of domestic violence cases involve women victims of male partners. The children of these women often witness the domestic violence. Witnessing can mean SEEING actual incidents of physical/and or sexual abuse. It can mean HEARING threats or fighting noises from another room.
