I’ve decided to speak my truth after seeing so many locals (mostly men) pretend this isn’t happening or is an overdramatic Twitter “trend”

Spoiler: rape is not the only form of sexual assault
I was 14 when the new kid got on the bus and grabbed my breast and called me a bitch and all the boys laughed as I cried in the back. I was a child and didn’t understand how to cope with this disrespect for my body or personal space. I let those boys convince me it was fine
I was 16 when I was falling asleep on the bus and a boy covered my mouth and stuck his hand up my shorts. He whispered “Dont make a sound” and he stuffed his fingers inside my vagina.

When I was 19 I matched with a classmate on tinder. We talked on Snapchat for a month. He seemed to really want to know me. I finally agreed to go on a date with him. He picked me up but we never went to the restaurant. I was confused but figured maybe we were getting pizza?
We went to his room and sat awkwardly watching tv until he started to grope me. It was kinda gross but I wasn’t too upset. We kissed a little bit but I continually made it clear I didn’t want to have sex. But he just kept pushing. I started to feel bruises form
I asked him to stop, asked about dinner. He bit my neck. Hard. It broke the skin. He stripped me down and raped me. Dumped the condom on me after. He left to get cleaned up and I laid there weeping. He came in annoyed and told me to get dressed so he could
