I was s******* assaulted when I was younger, about 14-15 I think. But back then I didn’t know I was assaulted because I didn’t know about s***** assault and what it meant. I just let it happen because I always heard the term “Boys will be boys” and I thought it was just another boy thing. Now that I’m older and I understand it now, I’m scared to tell to my parents because I let it happen. I’m scared to tell them because I know my mother would be heart broken and blame herself, thinking that she let it happen. I’m scared because I know my father will go on a man hunt, find that boy and skin him alive for touching me. My family is stressed enough as is and I don’t want to add to that.
