You article and is so very important Gillian Sisley . Please continue to speak out about this as much as you can.

We need to find a way to get through: to those so uncomfortable that they need to deny the occurrence; to those ( especially some women) who think they gain favour (validation) with a male if they call women liars; to those men afraid of male bro rejection if they show empathy; to those so focused on money, power and gain that greed dictates ignoring the women; to those people who have deluded themselves into believing that things like that only happens to “ those kinds of women”.

It’s very sad when you think about it that some individuals need to ignite these denial and coping mechanisms when the simple solution is to reach out and support the person harmed by this violation to the body and soul.

I am so sorry, Gillian, that you had to experience and endure what happened to you.
