       Thank you to all the women who held space for my rage (who didn't also make me feel like it was ugly), who shared their wisdom, who shared their stories, who even went so far as to (inadvertently or on purpose) help navigate me to a safe space by asking about my kitties. I went through all the stages of grief. Denial (that didn't really happen, did it)Anger (fuck him)Bargaining (But, what ifs)Depression (My poor cats who got smushed)Acceptance (I don't give away my power when somebody else chooses violence and perversion)I am so incredibly grateful because my first instinct was to isolate myself with "nobody will get it". But I didn't have to justify my history to anybody. It was enough that this isolated incident happened and it was not okay. I can only hope and pray all women find themselves the right kind of community.
