Ariel Castro is misunderstood

Ariel Castro


Charles Ramsey


Everyone is so quick to paint Ariel Castro as the bad guy just because he let 3 women stay with him thus offering them his protection. Ariel Castro gave these women a purpose. The only purpose they are on this earth for and a white knight who is a felon himself put these women back on the street where they can face real danger. When you get right down to it Ariel Castro is not really a bad guy just as Charles Ramsey is no saint. Charles Ramsey has been in and out of prison a lot and he even tried to kill his wife. No one takes into consideration that Castro himself is victim of child abuse and they don't care that some felon has added to that abuse. They don't care that a matriarchial society has victimized Castro because all they want is the blood of a man,any man. When Charles Ramsey goes on to victimize one of your brothers,uncles,fathers,nephews or male cousins then we'll see if you still regard him as a hero.

O’s 200 Men to host a panel discussion at the Penn State Child Sexual Abuse Conference

New York, NY Oct. 25, 2012 –O’s 200 Men, a St. Louis, MO based organization is hosting a panel discussion. "O's 200 Men" is a collection of men from all over the USA and Canada with the common bond of appearing on the Oprah Show in late 2010. Many of these men have become very active in the effort to raise awareness and help put an end to the horrible crime of Child Sexual Abuse.

The discussion panel is on male specific sexual abuse issues and will be held Monday, Oct. 29, 2012 at the HUB Auditorium from 7:30 to 9:30 p.m. This event is sponsored by One Heart, an organization formed by Penn State students to stand against child abuse through both fundraising and educational campaigns. The panel will consist of members of O’s 200 Men and other male survivors.

Carl Hart, Board Member & Coordinator of the panel discussion said, "Services for male survivors of sexual abuse are approximately 30 years behind the level of services for women. We are starting to see a change, but we feel that events like this can encourage Service Providers to "specialize" in working with male survivors. All the men who are involved with this event are looking forward to reaching out to the attendees and trying to encourage them to learn more about male specific issues."

The goal of this event is to shed light on the need for more male sexual abuse awareness and support. This is a topic that has been surrounded by stigma and shame. Males don't often talk about childhood sexual abuse, including their own sexual abuse. In an effort to change this, we want to help support them coming forward and dealing with the effects. We would also like to encourage an increase in the number of professionals specializing in male survivor treatment.
