A total of 1,013 women were recruited; 345 (37.6%, 95% CI 34.6-40.9) reported exposure to child sexual abuse 32.4% disclosed being touched in a sexual way, and 9.6% reported completed sexual intercourse. Abuse occured before the age of 13 in 63.4% of respondents. The perpetrator was a relative or an acquaintance in almost 80% of cases. The risk was higher among women of Central or South American origin (OR 2.86; 95% CI 1.33-6.12). Only 31.9% of women disclosed the abuse and 17.3% were blamed.
