Hey, way to encourage participation here, at a discussion forum.

And yet you still wield the argument that spun you out into butthurt. She didn't call the cops. Does that mean she wasn't assaulted? Forgive my pointing out the obvious, but if an argument hurts you so much that you ragequit, you should probably not pick it up as if it is your own.
And yeah, I got a lot of fucking nerve. Deal with it.

Call the cops, then. Because otherwise, you're spinning yarns, clearly.

Like you did?
Here, let's read your own words:

There could be an unknown number of underlying reasons why someone doesn't report being raped for days, weeks, months or even YEARS. They include:
Threats from their rapist.
Blackmail.
Shame and guilt.
Being completely alone.
PTSD.
Feelings that no one will believe or understand them.
Depending on when the rape happened: No DNA evidence.
The list goes on and on.
Obviously, you have never been to a rape-crisis center or a DV center. Nor have you ever had to deal with such a thing. Surely, some common sense would tell you that just because someone doesn't report a rape doesn't mean that it never happened.
I was raped when I was 25 years old. I never reported it. Why? Because I was threatened. I knew my rapist. My rapist knew where I lived. He also knew that I had an infant with special needs and significant health problems at the time. He threatened my child as well. Was I terrified? Fuck yes I was. This asshole had a popular position within the community. I was a single mother raising a special needs child. No one saw it happen. His word against mine. He befriended me five months prior to the rape happening. Made friends with MY friends. He told me he would have more character witnesses on his side than I'd know what to do with.
So no. Fuck you. It's not always as cut and dry as YOU think it is. Your post above just goes to show the sheer amount of ignorance you seem to have over such things.
Allow me to draw your attention to one of your reasons: "Feelings that no one will believe or understand them." Golly, that sounds familiar about right now.
I got a beat-down in that thread for arguing for Drich's ban over his posting to you.
That thread, long though it is, would be good reading for anyone reading this one, simply for watching the flip-flops happening.

Oddly enough, you didn't say a fucking word when Shell told her to shut up. Where was your outrage then?
*********
It's amazing how thoughtless people can be sometimes. There are at least four women in this thread who've talked about their own sexual assaults, and only one of them has the empathy to read the report without virtue-signalling their martyrdom: Mermaid. Maybe Grace's experience wasn't as bad as your own, but for fuck's sake, don't you see how obnoxious it was anyway?
I'll bet you walked uphill, seven miles in snow both ways, right? Just because you had it worse does not mean that Aziz's behavior was acceptable, or even legal (that's arguable). But hey, take pride in your having it worse than she did, and dispensing nuggets of judgement.
