Oh god. This is awful. I’m sorry this prompted you to get into detail, I can only imagine how hard that must be. I really hope you’re getting all the help and support you deserve, and I can only hope that the justice system doesn’t fail on you, as it so often does with victims of sexual violence. It’s very infuriating…

That’s horrifying. Hope you’re getting better, I cannot imagine the strength that it takes to get back on your feet after something like this happens. And I’m not just talking about the sex crime part, but also the DA trying to pass it off it as simple assault. I cannot understand what goes on in the mind of anyone…

What an awful experience on top of the awfulness of the rape. I’m so sorry these things have happened to you.

You may already know this, but calling RAINN might help if you want some additional support. Your advocate works for the prosecutor, not for you. That’s not a bad thing, as she’s going to know what’s going on with your case and can tell you about that. But RAINN can potentially connect you with other confidential…

The only appropriate response. Congrats for being a reasonable human being fit to live and breathe on this earth.

With sex work you are consenting to sex within the condition that payment will be rendered for the sex act. Its sort of equivalent to consenting to sex with a condom, only to later discover that the penetrator took it off secretly. With conditional consent rescinding the conditions under which the consent was given…

Everything about this “opinion” is offensive but just to point out how STUPID it is. If we’re equating rape with a service that she provides. And saying that service/property was stolen when she was raped then I guess if I want a live in nanny for my child, I can kidnap one, chain her up in my basement and force her…

WHOA HOT TAKE LADY

It’s tough to see this unidentified prostitute as a victim.

And then your friend heard him terminated the engagement and joined you in firing him to pluto in a bucket, yes?

Oh well fuck this prissy bitch.

That is fucking disgusting. People are disgusting, and Mary Mitchell is the disgusting-est, right up there with Roy Akins himself.

WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCKING SHIT

My friend’s fiancé was once like ‘Hohoho, if you rape a prostitute, is it rape or shoplifting, hohoho’ and I practically shouted ‘It’s rape, sex with someone who does not or cannot consent is rape, please stop talking immediately’.

There are plenty of men who would do that here in the States if they thought they could get away with it. No American exceptionalism, please. It’s extremely dangerous and keeps our problems going.

It seems you and me have opposite coping mechanisms. Eons ago I got convinced that everyone is, at their core, bad, if not downright vicious.

They’re not Muslims, you dumb fuck. India is almost 80% Hindu. You’re too stupid to even be a good bigot.

There’s so many lies I tell myself so I can continue to exist in this world without breaking down into a puddle of helplessness. One is that most people are, at their core, good. But shit like this, man... I don’t know.

Thank you for posting this.
