128|Was it Really Abuse?

How do you know if it was really abuse?Maybe you feel that it wasn't that bad, especially compared to what someone else went through.Or you wonder if it was abuse if if you were stimulated and you got excited.Or you feel like it was your fault that you should have known better.Maybe you were told that it was your fault and you believed them.The fact is that as a child you cannot give consent to any kind of sexual activity, you don't have the understanding to give that consent.So any sexual act that you experienced as a child is considered non consensual and therefore abuse.It doesn't matter if it only happened once, or you feel that you found it exciting or stimulating.All abuse is wrong and it was not your fault.What matters is how it affected you when it happened and how it is affecting you now.No Longer Ashamed⁠⁠No Longer Ashamed FB⁠[email protected]
