Rape

Well I don't have to wonder as I know. Ok I never fell pregnant as the First time I was raped I was 5 and I had to suffer that for 2 Years. Then I got raped at the age of 15 and I was lucky there I guess not to have fallen pregnant. The Memories are still with me to this very Day and I am still scared of Men until I get to know them and know that I can trust them. There is a lot of other things to and I never told anyone until I was 26. Well one was a Family Member and the Other was a Family Friend, who would have believed me.

Getting raped was almost the equivalent of someone going into your apartment, smashing everything you own, defecating on your family photos, setting it on fire and then leaving. Your body is that apartment after it's been destroyed. The only difference is, we can always find a new apartment. I wouldn't wish rape on my worst enemies.

I could tell you what is it like but you wouldn't want to know. Trust is very difficult, being touched even 22 years and 2 kids later can make me cringe. Not feeling threatened by my partners point of view on a subject, or by his advances is another good one that you have to have been there to understand. What about people who know and judge you - are you being judged by people, do they think it's your own fault etc. I spent most of secondary school in a room with the boy who had raped me when I was 12, it was not pleasant. I could not tell you how the ones who get pregnant feel, as it is too difficult to imagine, but I hope that they did what was best for them regardless of anyone elses opinion and hope they do not live to regret that decision. Rapists should have a large R branded onto their forehead so that people know what they are. It kills a part of the victim inside and damages other emotions too.

i dont have to wonder what its like...I know..and in all honesty, it cant be explained in enough detail for those who have never dealt with it to really understand. It is a life altering and shattering experience. As far as getting pregnant goes, luckily I didnt get pregnant from either of my rapes and my heart really goes out to anyone who has had to deal with preg from rape..

Rape is a horrible experience that no one deserves. In the course of my work, I have met many womeon who were raped and some of them were gang-raped as well. They're completly traumtized and they need serious professional help. I don't think that in some cases, the victims can completly get over it. However, they become better in a way. But therapy is the ultimate solution for them.
