Absolutely this. Not only were the abusers the dirty ones, their actions were dirty. Not yours. The only part of those experiences which was not dirty was you. Your body and your being were separate from the actions of the abusers and you were (and are) clean. You are vital and you expand far beyond the dirt of others. Keep safe, this is hard work.
