Don't read me wrong here, because it's a serious subject that I want to be respectful and sympathetic about.
But why do you think there is a clear connection between SW fantasies and abuse, and what sort of abuse are you actually alluding to? If it's referring to your own experiences and how they eventually led to how you view the SW fantasy, then I can understand there might be a link there (but I don't want to pry or make you feel you have to explain yourself). I just wondered if your liking for the more violent forms of the fantasy, may have been triggered by these experiences.
I've been fortunate enough in my life not to have experienced child sex abuse, but I can understand and sympathise with the scars it must leave.
As for Chesya, who I've had a long and lasting online friendship with, I'm of course familiar with the issues that he's shared with us in the past, but I'm sorry to learn that he's had these problems as well.
ps. A timely point for you to chip in Jon, if you're viewing this thread.
