Double Language

As an example of some of the information being shared over on the Abuse Survivor and Supporter’s network, I learned about this post about the double language of pedophiles.

I can’t say I had given this much thought before tonight, but it certainly is something that more attention should be paid to. Children may be tryng to tell you what’s happening to them, but only know the words the person victimizing them has taught them. If you know of cases of this happening, go over and leave a comment on the post or join the conversation on the social network. Add to the conversation.

    I’ve said it about false rape allegations, false child abuse allegations, fake hate crimes, etc.

    If you believe rape, abuse, and hate crimes are big issues that our society needs to be concerned with, and that the victims need to believed, you need to be the first to call it out when someone undermines the issue by spreading false stories.

    So, while it may cost me some followers, let me just say this. If you believe QAnon conspiracy theories about elite pedophile gangs and sex trafficking rings with zero proof aside from some seeming coincidences with a bunch of half-true facts, and go spreading them around, you are undermining the very serious issue we have in society with actual, real pedophiles, elite and otherwise, and real, true to life, sex trafficking.

  • Repeating abuse

    Emily had an interesting comment to that post about repeating abuse. Go ahead, read it. Her comment left me thinking, but without any real answers. Why are men more likely to repeat abuse? What is it about being abused as a child for a man that makes it more likely to turn around and abuse?…
