History of Feminism

... just how many of these "little" incidents, perpetrated by people who can't control, or who don't bother controlling, themselves end up affecting people's lives FOR YEARS. Maybe even decades.

Part of me feels pity for these sick sick people, even though I can think of two incidents in my own life without even trying. One really seriously and physically pedophilic, one potentially so. (Only the potential one was reported to the police; for the one [well, there were repeats] that actually happened, I was too young at the time to understand--the family friend was a doctor so I thought it was something to keep us healthy, but believe me when I say it was gross and sad.)

I wonder if there are any more that I repressed or was too young to understand. Probably not, but girls (and really anyone who was ever a child) do have to wonder.

So, yeah, part of me feels pity for them, but part of me just wonders why the hell they thought their pathetic urges were more important than the psyches of the little children they were preying on. I mean, they can't help their urges but they certainly made a choice to act on them.
