I had to watch you TED talk for my Soc class. I felt inclined to tell my story.
I’m 19 years old and live in the US.
As a child I was molested by my stepsister and my grandfather, however was never able to tell my story because I was 11 and felt no one would believe me. Around 12 years old groups of boys used to chase the girls around because it was “slap ass Tuesday” and the girls would laugh because it was “normal.” but scared me, especially because they where so much older than us at the time. Every day I hear cruel and vile “jokes” about women and see the over-sexualization of women and when I tell people its offensive I’m “too sensitive.”
