TO ALL THE MEN IN MY LIFE…

If you care about me you will take the time to watch this video. I am and continue to be horrified by how people who I consider to be friends DON’T GET VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN…

RAPE CULTURE AJ with Dena Takruri. June 9

I was molested by an old man in the front seat of a car when I was young. I don’t remember who it was or when it happened but I do remember him talking in a gentle and kind voice as he asked me if it felt good when he stuck his hands down my pants and raped me…yes rape doesn’t have to involved a penis…if it did women would be unable to rape, which is obviously not true!

But that experience was only one of many…I was made to do sexual acts to someone I did not want to…I was nearly raped at 17…a man grabbed me, dragged me into a washroom, turned off the lights and proceeded to remove my skirt…I was saved by a male friend who saw him grab me…and yes I was drunk but that doesn’t justify anything…

IF YOU DO NOT CALL OUT PEOPLE WHO ARE TOO SEXUALLY AGGRESSIVE TOWARDS WOMEN/MEN YOU ARE PART OF THE PROBLEM…YOUR SILENCE NOT ONLY RAPED IT CONTINUES TO ALLOW THE NORMALITY OF RAPE CULTURE TO PERSIST…

DO SOMETHING! SAY SOMETHING! AND GROW A PAIR OF REAL MAN BALLS ALREADY BECAUSE REAL MEN (and women) DON’T RAPE PEOPLE…MONSTERS RAPE PEOPLE AND THE SILENCE LETS IT HAPPEN…

ASK YOURSELF…

WHAT HAVE I DONE TO CHANGE RAPE CULTURE!? IF YOU’VE DONE NOTHING YOU ARE ARE A PART OF THE PROBLEM TOO…

Oh ya! And I never told anyone about the first two experiences until I finally lost my mind in the fall of 2012…20 years after the second incident…so ya! Women don’t usually tell anyone about their experiences…

Watch the HBO movie Confirmation about the appointment of Judge Clarence Thomas in the USA to find out how a sexual predator who is mentally deranged is appointed to a position of great power and how all the other men who supported Thomas raped the victim again in front of the whole country throughout the investigation…

CONFIRMATION- HBO Film regarding Clarence Thomas

what would who have done!? What will you do in the future!? Are you a part of the problem or are you a part of the solution!? Be honest with yourself…and in the future if listen when a woman calls out an instance of rape culture because you have NO IDEA what it’s like to be a woman and never will…And to all boys and men who have experienced sexual assault and rape, this fight is in your names as well. Together we are stronger than any predator will ever be.

With Love,

Robyn
