Every woman I've dated was sexually assaulted at some point in their lives. Most of them in childhood.
Which puts my anecdotal accounting at close to 80%. With myself and the girlfriend raped as an adult the two outliers.
what the fuck
And just about every single one was a family member. My ex-wife it was the neighbor kid. But outside of that all immediate family or in one instance, a cousin.
Half of all women, my dude. Statistics don't lie (though even that is probably under-reported)...
There's an interpretation here that doesn't sound very good for you.
People can interpret it how they want and I was aware people would read into it. People read into everything though.
My interpretation is that growing up in an abusive environment I resonated with other damaged people and that me identifying with protecting my mom from my abusive dad rather than trying to be like my dad, helped other damaged people feel safe around me (generally, when I wasn't having a meltdown from my own trauma anyway).
And since my first girlfriend had nightmares from her abuse I learned young to be supportive of people with sexual trauma.
