I get that men and women have to deal with different things. I prefaced my post with that as well. I understand that I don't have to deal with 90 percent of what women do. But, sexual assault can effect anybody, and no one's personal experience should be devalued based on their gender.
I was told that my rape didn't matter and that should take my post down because it was distracting from the narrative. I didn't post my experience lightly or as a joke. I saw brave people sharing their stories and found the courage finally share my experience and now I just kind of feel like shit. Thanks internet!
Its the same attitudes found in this thread. That victimhood can only fit a certain narrative, otherwise its ignored, ridiculed or imagined.
