Даже когда ребенок рад своему сексопыту, всё равно пытаются представить его травмированным, а отсутствие (в ¾ случаев) симптомов ПТСР списать на рассогласование гипоталамуса, гипофиза и надпочечников. Однако в недавнем исследовании влияние детского сексопыта на гипоталамически-гипофизарно-надпочечную связь опровергли:
the associations were weaker and not statistically significant for cardiometabolic risk and HPA/SNS function. With the exception of a possible sex difference in the association between sexual abuse and overall physiological dysregulation, there was little evidence that the associations varied systematically by type of CM
Так что вредность сексуализации для детской психики (как и для кровеносной системы) по-прежнему не доказана.

exposure to childhood maltreatment predicts adult physiological dysregulation, particularly inflammation
although a growing literature describes the effects of negative childhood experiences on biological outcomes, it is difficult to compare results across studies because of differences in measures of childhood experiences, biological markers, sample characteristics, and included covariates. to ensure comparability across its analyses, this study used a single national survey of adults in the united states-the midlife in the united states (midus) study-to examine comprehensively the association between adverse childhood experiences, operationalized as childhood maltreatment (cm), and biological markers of risk for poor health and to assess whether these associations differ by type of maltreatment, sex, or race. the sample included 1254, mostly white (78%), adults aged 34-86 years (mean age 57 years), 57% of whom were female. we present incidence rate ratios (irr) from negative binomial and poisson regressions to examine the relationships between exposure to cm (emotional, physical, and sexual abuse; emotional and physical neglect; and a cm-index reflecting frequency across all five types of maltreatment) and four biological risk summary scores (overall physiological dysregulation, cardiometabolic risk, inflammation, and hypothalamic pituitary axis/sympathetic nervous system (hpa/sns) function). we also tested whether the effect of each type of cm varied by sex and by race. the cm-index was associated with higher overall physiological dysregulation and inflammation, but the associations were weaker and not statistically significant for cardiometabolic risk and hpa/sns function. with the exception of a possible sex difference in the association between sexual abuse and overall physiological dysregulation, there was little evidence that the associations varied systematically by type of cm or by sex or race. we conclude that exposure to cm predicts adult biological risk, particularly inflammation. inconsistency with previous research suggests that additional research is needed to confirm findings regarding sex and race differences.
