Would you find it hard to admit that you were abused?

Would you find it hard to admit that you were abused?
Would you find it hard to admit that you were abused because you are a man. Either sexually or physically at some point in your life. I have done a bit of research online and it says men find it harder to admit they were abused compared to women because they fear that people will see them as less of of a man if they do.
I know that the amount of woman that seek help for abuse and depression is much higher than men but yet more men commit suicide than women!
So do you think it's harder for men to admit to problems because there men?
Also state your own opinion about what problems it may lead to later on later in life!

I think if you had started this post with the last line you might have been asking a reasonable question. However bringing the specifics of abuse into it means that people have to make the public statement that they were abused, or speak hypothetically, which in that particular case is a bit pointless.

If the discussion were just about whether men find it difficult to admit to problems it would open it to a wider discussion, and the issue of abuse might arise, but not necessarily.
