Handing the Shame Back

Survivor Interview: Glenn Miles

Gloria Masters

 

Meet Glenn Miles
Survivor. Researcher. Nurse

Although he suffered humiliation and sexualised school bullying at the hands of his peers, Glenn was seriously sexually abused at a Christian camp at age 13 by a 30-year-old male he was sharing a room with. He was told, this is normal and what men do. He felt it was somehow his fault, and then spent the next 3 decades hiding the fact he was gay from everyone but his wife.
