Are there really people in this world who were protected by parents, never inappropriately touched by them or family much others? I have a hard time parsing the sexual bad behavior of apparently mostly men on women because that's not my story. Was your family safe and protective?

Thank you, Molly. I'm still learning more and more about it through lots of therapy, but that's only because I have those resources. My sexual abuse was one of the first things I brought up in therapy years ago and I'm still working through it's consequences.

want a hug of compassionate love? A shoulder? I get it and I am so sorry. And also glad you have self left to do the work. People do such awful things.

Hugs are great! People do awful things and our culture leaves it up to victims to do the work. I'm glad to see the recent trend of fighting back in Hollywood and hopefully it'll make the population at large more aware and considerate :)

But solutions, not just vilification. Awareness isn't understanding or at least sympathizing. Cuz those are so hard for people unlike the sensitive kids on the block. I hope so, for future children's sake. This lineage is gone after me and my bros.
