thinking about how I& #39;m part of what seems to be the majority of young women who were groomed by pedophiles on the internet from a young age https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🙃" title="Auf den Kopf gestelltes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Auf den Kopf gestelltes Gesicht">

30, 40, 50+ year old men would talk about how they wanted to fuck my "tight girl pussy" or how they wanted to watch their dogs have sex with me. and much much worse. all of the most awful things.

no wonder my body doesn& #39;t feel like my own. no wonder that a hint of visible femaleness makes me feel like I& #39;m naked. bc I was taught that my body doesn& #39;t belong for me, that I belong to old men who have every right to use it for their own pleasure.

no wonder it took me so long to open up to feminism. It was so much easier to be in denial of what men do when they think they can get away with it. now I just see women& #39;s suffering everywhere and it feels sometimes like there is no hope for us to escape

imo it& #39;s also a factor behind the massive uptick in rates of trans identified girls in recent years. it& #39;s an attempt to reclaim their bodies, and make themselves unattractive to the men who took their power away.
