Best Answer

Sexual abuse of a child may result in altered sexuality in male children who have adult male abusers. However, the incidences of sexual abuse performed by women against female children are so rare that there has not been a study on whether or not this results in altered sexuality.

In all cases, altered sexuality due to child sexual abuse changes the abused child's sexuality so that they become attracted by some quality of their abuser. This may be their gender, appearance, and/or personality. It does not always occur, and often even when it does occur, victims who find meaningful, healthy relationships move past it.
