Sexual Abuse

Sexual Abuse

What the hell is going on? Abuse of power has been around for a long long time and I'm sure it's going on right now. However, that abuse of power has and always will involve financial abuse, employee pay abuse, corporate abuse and even government abuse. Now we're seeing the most disgusting abuse - sexual abuse.

What is with these guys (and sometimes women)? What were they thinking? How in the hell can they look at themselves in the mirror and feel good about themselves? How could they have a happy life knowing they abused another human being? I just don't get it!

I know forty/fifty years ago women were consider second class citizens. But, even back then, second class citizens were human beings. As disgusting as it is, this is not about abuse of an animal this is abuse of another human being. 

Did it make them feel more powerful? Psychiatrists say that rape is about feeling powerful over their victims and I get that they might be insane. But, these people who are committing sexual abuse are not insane (or maybe they are). The reason I don't want to give them the insane card is because that's letting them off the hook for the horrible things they did and are doing.

How does masturbating in front of a woman make you happy? How does having a women look at your penis make you happy? How does feeling up a women who doesn't want to be touched make you happy? I just don't get it!

In the seventies, women started to realize they have more power than they believed. Today, women are still not considered by many men as first class citizens, but they sure as hell know women are longer considered as second class citizens. Today, women have a voice. Today, most women will not put up with sexual abuse and call out their abuser.

Unfortunately that wasn't the case many, many years ago. Sooo, it took one woman and then another and then many more to speak out. I applaud them, but wonder why now? Is it just the words in the movie "Network" "I'm mad as hell and I'm not going to take it anymore" or is it the guilt of feeling that by not saying something now these abusers will continue to destroy more human lives? I believe it's both.

Should they have spoken up back then - absolutely? However, I lived back then and being abused by powerful people, who knew they could get away with it, was the way of the world. My father was abused way back then for being Jewish. GE laid him off when they didn't need him after the war. GE did the same with all the other Jews. That's abuse of power.

My father respected my mother. I was raised to respect women, but it's more than that - I just don't understand why any sane person would get pleasure out of this abuse. It makes me happy that these acts are no longer in the darkness. To the ones (and there are too many of them) who say: "they should have said something then" or  "this is about revenge" or "this is about politics" or "they're lying." I say F..K YOU!

Sooo, it's not just sexual abuse it's abuse of power and:

It Has To Stop Now
