I was 8 when i was first sexually harassed by a boy in my class. Told his parents and my patents and they didn't believe me. When I 10 when I was first cat called. I kept being harassed for many years. In Middle school the cat calling got worse. I used to just flip the finger to the cars. In 6th grade a high school boy "was playing" with me and he groped me. He touched me inappropriately and i yelled and his patents defended him. I was told to "shut up" Not really understanding what was happening. In middle school another boy groped me in summer school. I spoke up, the teachers and principal said nothing. They told me to "calm down" the groping continued for a whole summer. I remember being so frustrated. Wondering why I was the one who felt guilty. In 8th grade a man who ruined my life touched me in my private areas. I also spoke up and was told that I was "confused". When I was 16 this same man tried to rape me. I spoke up and yelled. And he was arrested for 5 FUCKING DAYS. They dropped the charges because he didn't actually rape me. To this day I am infuriated by the fact that no one did anything to defend me. No other child regardless of the gender should ever have to live through this. Sexual harassment and rape are not issues to be taken lightly. We need to educate our boys and girls that this kind of behavior will not be tolerated and will be held accountable. #MeToo #nosexualharassment #educateWritt
