To clarify (I have had some private post on this) : I do *not* think that
survivors of sexual abuse are highly  unlikely to breastfeed. Some will bf,
some won't, I  would guess.  For some it will be a factor in their
experience (as it certainly is in childbirth, according to recent
research), and for some it won't be.

My point was that some things go on in people's hearts and minds and life
histories we have no idea about.  And any of them could affect their
decision to bf or not.
