The app for independent voices

Good work, and very thought-provoking. Like many women, I've been through several instances of sexual molestation. but I agree wholeheartedly with the author that unless you're talking about a situation where physical violence and/or extreme verbal cruelty occurs, it's better to just move on and refuse to become traumatized. Example: when I was about 22, I took a walk around my apartment complex for some fresh air. Suddenly a young man dashed up behind me, and grabbed my left breast.. Then off he ran, and I never saw him again. Should I suffer endlessly over this assault? I think not. but today's political climate would have us all be victims and suffer endlessly over any improper advance that a man might make. I don't mean to make light of these things, as they should not happen. But we should not become consumed with guilt and angst over them, either.
