I would not call her a survivor. She must have had PTSD. PTSD IS KNOWN to occur with rape victims.
It also needs to be treated. A good beginning is having a rape kit processed to identify the rapist. That was not the case with Ms. Giuffre. She knew her rapist. Correction pedophile.
Women are never given the fact to be known that she wanted a life of HER choosing. In other words she wants to avail herself to a man (even as a teen) of her choosing whom she has feelings. Any molestation or assault will cause scars. Emotional scars that last a lifetime.
This is why Date Rape is an issue.
I really think the playboy lifestyle Trump engaged with people like Epstein has a very false face of women. (Click here. Ah, liquor and love). Supposedly women “want it.” “When she says no she really means yes.” All that nonsense is to justify a man’s aggression. “It has to happen sooner or later.”
Does anyone hear RESPECT in those colloquialisms? No. There is no respect for women in that male culture. None. That cultural mess is all about “the erection.” There are mental health issues with men that carry that “mindset” chronically. Where are the men that openly state, “Don’t you know how to respect your own identity while respecting hers?”
See, a woman has no gray area in that culture. Either she is a whore or a virgin. That is polarizing identities and placing them in opposition of each other and not in parallel to each other in an understanding of each other in feeling intimate and the consent to “go there.”
“You just grab ‘em by the pussy.”
I am so sorry to hear the victims of Trump and Epstein were so badly scarred they contemplated and/or ended their lives.
In the year 2025 can we please empower rape victims to, “Go, run, tell,” no different than a child confronted by a stranger? That social culture is far healthier than hiding in shame. Rape kits need to be in abundance in Urgent Care Centers as well as ERs. They need to be given priority in processing TO PREVENT the next rape.
Rape kits should always be free in processing because IT IS A CRIME.
It is easy to see why Ms. Giuffre demanded records to be released. She had no shame. She only had pain and wanted not only justice, but, PREVENTION from it happening to others including daughters or nieces or the neighbor. She wanted others to understand her pain. If that had occurred she might have received support and healed.
There is NO WAY inmate Maxwell should be released or given brevity in anything she states as fact.
