Attempted Rape
My mom survived an attempted rape while babysitting! Never got a college degree but badass! Sheโs the reason Iโm a feminist! Thank you Linor for sharing yours!
Although I was not raped until the age of 23 I need to start my story much earlier. When I was about 7 or 8, my older cousin, who was only one year older than me began touching me. At that age I don’t think I really understood what was...

Rape Being Considered a “Joke”
