On Nov 8, 2016, I was shocked, in disbelief, I cried all night, I cried for weeks on/off that America is sexist.
It made my anxiety escalate, made me depressed & insomniac.
What cheered me up was lookin forward to Nov 6, 2018.
Today sucks but we're 30 days closer to Nov 6.
VOTE!
What broke my heart 11/08/16 that America said, like today: we know dude sexually assaults women, we don't care about what happened to you.
Nov 8, 2016 & Today October 6, 2018 was an assault to #MeToo survivors.
As a survivor & mother of a little girl is a double punch to my gut.
On Nov 8, 2016, I was so happy thinking the nightmare hellish circle that took over America would finally be over.
Our kids went to vote with us, I told my baby girl Ruby who was almost 3 at the time a woman would be president, I told her every little girl can be president now.
Sexual assault & harassment linked to long-term health problems for women:
High blood pressure
Depression
Insomnia
Anxiety
A few possible long-term health consequences face mid-life women who experienced sexual assault & harassment, according to a study. cnn.it/2Rkhqap
Not everyone is able, willing to identify what happened to them, but that doesn't prevent the body from having opinions about it & expressing them.
Women who reported prior sexual assault were 3 times more likely to experience depression.
Twice as likely to have elevated anxiety than women without a history of sexual trauma.
Those who experienced either sexual assault or harassment were twice as likely to have sleep problems, including insomnia, the study found.
Aggravated Sexual/Abuse by Force/Threat of Force:
When person knowingly causes another person to engage in sexual act
Attempts to by using force against that person by threatening, placing that person in fear that person will be subjected to death, serious bodily injury, kidnap
Abusive Sexual Contact:
When no sexual penetration actually occurred but when the intentional touching of genitalia, anus, groin, breast, inner thigh, buttocks of any person with intent to abuse, humiliate, harass, degrade, arouse or gratify the sexual desire of any person occurs
Sexual Abuse of a Minor/Ward:
Knowingly engaging in a sexual act with a person between the ages of 12 & 15 years.
Aggravated sexual abuse with children is a serious form called statutory rape, which the perpetrator shall be fined, imprisoned for any term of years, life or both.
The audacity of the "president"of the United States asking why Dr Christine Blasey Ford didn't contact FBI 35 yrs ago.
First of all it was not a federal crime for her to contact FBI.
Second of all she was 15.
I was groped at 7 yrs old, 30 yrs later still haven't told my parents.
A 12 yr old groped me under my skirt.
I froze.
Was paralyzed
Confused.
Scared.
My mom feet ahead of me, unaware of what was done to me at the school entrance, early in the morning.
I remember every detail of that day at 37 yrs old.
I thought I'd get in trouble.
It was traumatic.
When you get sexually assaulted no matter what age or how many years have gone by, you heal from it, you learn how to cope with the trauma & pain but the scars live with you til your last breath.
I don't let it define me.
My #MeToo scars are a reminder of my strength & resilience
