    I'm just embarrassed that I was well into middle age before I came to understand this, at least as much as a man can.https://twitter.com/espiers/status/1041543241940852737 …

    Nearly every woman I know has been sexually assaulted at some point in her life, including me. I only know a handful of people who reported it, much less went public with it, for all of the reasons that Christine Ford was afraid to. Staying quiet is the norm, not the exception.

        I didn't tell anyone for almost 40 years. Not even my ex-husband.

        I kept quiet for years as well. And it didn’t happen just once. (I mean only was “technically” rape.) a lot of people still don’t know about it. Oh cool, another thing to fuck me up for the rest of my life

        Replying to @gorskon

        I've spent my career working with children and adults who've been the victim of sexual assault and the ignorence of men has been a constant theme. And that ignorence is expressed in every part of our society from home and work to government policy making.

        Same here. I thought not assaulting people was normal and that assault was rare. Sadly, I was naive but I'm learning.

        Yep. As women in college in the 80's it was pretty much our part time job to dodge gropes and suss out rapists. But these guys should all tell us again how boys should be allowed their "youthful indiscretions".

        Replying to @gorskon

        My landlord’s son touched me on my butt & tried to kiss me in 2008. I was embarrassed that I froze & couldn’t stop it. I did go to the police after friends told me to. I told my husband after 3 days b/c I needed to. But it was hard to tell people I couldn’t fend the guy off.
