36. Actually, as a rape survivor myself

I'd like to see a bit less of this topic too. I've pretty much gone on with my life, except for the occasional PTSD episode ( a couple per week). Reading thread upon thread about it, doesn't really help.

Yes, we all know that rape is bad; and that all rape is rape, and there is really no such thing as illegitimate rape. And no; I don't blame all men for it. Rape is not a sexual crime; it's a crime of anger and exerting control using sex as the weapon....along with some pretty lethal stuff too usually.

So there you have it folks.
All done for a couple of months for now.

OK?
