Leah pointed to an interesting blog that is all about Jewish survivors of sexual violence. While I’m not Jewish, I’ll be reading it and keeping an eye out for common issues that affect all survivors. 🙂
I’ll have more to say later, it’s been a crazy-busy couple of weeks but things should get a little closer to normal soon!
This time it’s the case of the rape away the gay pastor, who tried to explain away his sexual abuse of boys by claiming he was trying to keep me from being gay, who has had his sentence reduced to 5 years of probation and mandatory sex offender classes. On the heels of what happened…
Pin I have been on record saying that if you truly believe in a cause, and the importance of it, you need to be the first to call out untruths.
I’ve said it about false rape allegations, false child abuse allegations, fake hate crimes, etc.

I read this post over at Blooming Lotus the other day, and something just didn’t sit right with me about it. I decided to bookmark it and go back later, so that I could spend some time really thinking about it. Today, as I re-read it, this part still stuck with me in some odd…
Since Google announced the new community feature for Google+, I thought creating a community for survivors would be a fun way to experiment with the feature, and see what we could make of it as a group. Not making any promises, but thought it’d be fun and interesting. We’ll see what happens! If you’re interested…
