Re: Aaaand it keeps going!
I've been told that myself. I have no triggers around rape, and (pardon the TMI) pre-disability I enjoyed a very active sex life. Apparently being happy to have sex in my teens/young adulthood meant I couldn't have been molested as a child.
Mind, I was also told I couldn't have had an abusive childhood in general because I was too articulate. Apparently no child who was ever beaten is able to stand up for themselves and win discussions. I'm still baffled by that logic.
So yeah, I have a special hate for the "But you're not acting like a proper victim!" trope.
