It was disgusting... and I didn't feel like I could tell anyone until I suddenly bursted it out at dinner earlier this year.

Two of the men (these are like the two nicest men in the world, down af) at the table were like, "Oh yeah, THAT dude. There's stories."

This dude is progressive famous, too... I know some of you know who I'm talking about. Sigh.

What's telling is there are so many engagements, profile views on these tweets. But no one says, "Hey, you alright?" or "I believe you."

That's how it is in real life, too. Women bottle this shit up for YEARS; once we speak truth, everyone gets real quiet. Even other women.

It's also incumbent among men to recognize that most, if not all, women have stories like this. Especially if you're in a position of power.
