Mets pitcher R.A. Dickey writes about being molested by ... a 13-year-old girl?!

Prior to this, Dickey was known as a terrible pitcher who suddenly became decent when he was nearly 36 years old.
He was born in 1974. From 2001-2008, he never had an ERA below 5.02. In 2009, he had an ERA of 4.62. He joined the Mets in 2010, and compiled ERAs of 2.84 and 3.28 over the next two seasons. I especially know this because I had him on my fantasy team both years.
Anyway, he wrote a book about both the molestations and the steroid abuse he witnessed in 2001 as a member of the Texas Rangers. He claims in the book that he was disgusted by the "cheating" and never did so himself.
Most interesting are his claims that he was molested by a 13-year-old female babysitter when he was 8 years old, and that it occurred about 4 or 5 times. He wrote that a 17-year-old male molested him in a separate incident that same summer.
If this is all true, how twisted does a 13-year-old girl have to be to force an 8-year-old boy to have sex with her? Would love to see where this woman is now (she is in her early 40s) and see how messed up she ended up being -- or even if she's still alive. Almost all molesters are male, unless you want to count the adult women getting caught having sex with male teenagers (which I don't consider molestation.) The few that are female must be really, really fucked up in the head.
