These stats were always so strange to me bc MOST women I know over the age of like 25 have been assaulted. More women have been assaulted than not and you can’t convince me otherwise

what’s even crazier is that there’s a high chance majority of these women didn’t only experience it once. just once is so much to handle, but more than that??? it’s so sad and dehumanizing.

I’d say sexual harassment is probably 98+% and SA is probably 60+%, maybe higher

I also agree that it’s higher than one third but there might be effects of that shared experience on you that helped you bond easier, even if you didn’t know at the time

idk. it happened to each of us after we became friends so. not really sure. however of my entire friend group only about 50% have been, so yeah maybe the trauma brought the certain ones of us closer
