Man Educating Myself  > 

Where Do I Start?

Along with the courageous men above, we welcome you to 1in6.org.

If you had a childhood experience like theirs, or think you might have, you are not alone. Researchers estimate that 1 in 6 men have had unwanted or abusive sexual experiences before age 16.

Whatever your situation, our first and most important piece of advice: Find your own pace.

  • You can learn a lot here, starting now. As much as you are ready to learn.
  • But you don't have to figure out everything right away. If that's a pressure you feel, we totally understand. We also know that, if you don't pace yourself, going full steam ahead can create problems.
  • Remember, you always have options, like leaving and coming back later.
  • This site is here for you, and it's not going away.

Where to start depends on where you are, what you need right now, and where you're headed.
