    These are the same people that tell me that me getting repeatedly raped by my female, alcoholic, bipolar caregiver when I was a child, is actually a blessing from God.

        This fact was one of the most brutal challenges to overcome in my healing. When I started to be able to talk about what had happened to me… Almost universally the answer/response would be “that couldn’t have happened”, “you’re making this up”, “you’re just angry at your mother”, etc. it re-traumatized me very badly and it took a long time to get over this & to be able to assert myself.

        Damn, I get hate for this even from many atheists. They think I am being misogynist but I do believe any gender can rape anyone.
