139. If I were in your shoes I'd be so furious I wouldn't be able to type
You are being remarkably self-controlled. I'm sorry that you are having to deal with this kind of ignorance.

The fact that having one's email hacked, or private diaries being read by others, is extremely horrible doesn't mean that it's on the same level of being afraid for your physical safety or even your life. Invasion of privacy is absolutely awful--it's an invasion of one's very mind and being--and I'd sympathize with BGL to the depths of my being if he weren't being so hurtful to you. But rape is an invasion of every single level of existence--physical, mental, and spiritual.

I'm so sorry. :hug:
