Trigger Warning – includes themes of sexual assault and rape.
I remember growing up, my parents told me if boys picked on me, they had a crush on me. I was taught at a really young age that if boys make fun of me, I should fall for them. As I grew up, that idea makes me weak in the knees (in the bad way).
When I was 15 years old, I was sexually harassed by my boyfriend at the time. And I’m tired of hinting around the subject.
