Hey Artsywoman,

Thank you so much for your support, and I know how difficult it is to go into detail not because I wanted to hear them but because I know how much it brings up to actually go through them and tell others what you are feeling and hope they understand. Most people here are just the best and are so supportive but it is still so hard to bring these things out.

I felt like I was squeezing a boil writing about it. At first I put it in the wrong place and was mortified and rushed back to move it to somewhere appropriate but that didn't relieve the shame of putting it in the wrong place.

Knowing what you experienced made me hurt for you. Someone who hasn't had any molestation at all might say "he only touched your thigh" but I've had that done and it makes me crazy when I think of all the times I've been invaded and I feel so sorry for you having to put up with that.

What has happened to our society? What has happened that these men think and feel that we are goods on show for sale or rent? Is it to do with the genre of movies and the sex and violence in them thesedays or is it that some men just think that women are a walking supermarket where they can just grab what they want ? I don't know but it brings up such anger in me that I have to go into grounding breathing patterns when I think about it...

Thanks again Artsy
