I thought they were McMansion rich. Like,“we have money, therefore, of course we are good people who never, ever do anything wrong. Remember, my son took your daughter’s friend to Homecoming people.”

If I remember correctly, it’s more like McMansion level?

How wealthy were his parents, out of curiosity? Like McMansion-rich, or Swiss bank account rich? What is the cut-off for wealth to become afflicted with “affluenzia”?

“But it’s an important vacation that I swear was in the planning for months. Yes, I only bought the tickets yesterday. So what? Months, I said! Are you calling me a liar?! I’ll sue!”

Gee, I can’t imagine why not giving any real consequences to a kid who’s never had any real consequences wouldn’t work.

Let’s take a minute to consider that this is Nik Richie, founder of a revenge porn gossip site, trying to press a woman into talking about rape. This is the kind of woman he regularly chews up and calls a gutterwhore on his website.

It took me a solid decade to come to terms with the fact that I was raped while blackout drunk. It sure sounds like she was raped and I have nothing but empathy for her.

If Lala doesn’t feel violated, I am happy and glad for her (being a rape survivor myself, I would never wish anyone to feel what I feel/felt), but I certainly hope she doesn’t feel like she can speak for any other women that have had a similar experience with this guy.

“Melodramatic” is something my mom (who blames me for my abuse) likes to say. Actually she says “melodramatic hillbilly.”

This story :-(

It appears to be happening in my own family so I’m guessing it happens everywhere. My older.cousin molested his sisters and myself when we were kids and he was a teen. He now has a wife and daughter and it feels like I’m the only one that won’t accept him back into our family for their sake and because it was so long…

How messed up were those store owners? “Oh, he does those things to all the girls. No biggie.”

God, that was beautiful and so moving. That she put such focus on how those assaults take something from us that can’t be replaced- that we are deeply impacted in our lives by these sexual assaults- made me cry.

“Leave that man alone. He does that to all the little girls.”

I volunteered on a sexual assault hotline for a few years, and you’d be surprised how common stories these are... I frequently talked to women maybe twice my age who had a devastating experience in their teens that turned into drug addiction, depression, and everything in between for years after. And the degree to…
