Magical thinking for assault and rape victims!
You’ll never enjoy being attacked if you don’t change your attitude!
Seriously — that’s the first subtitle listed in this book’s table of contents.

2. When you see someone walking by themselves, leave them alone!
3. If you pull over to help someone with car problems, remember not to assault them!
4. NEVER open an unlocked door or window uninvited.
5. If you are in an elevator and someone else gets in, DON’T ASSAULT THEM!
6. Remember, people go to laundry to do their laundry, do not attempt to molest someone who is alone in a laundry room.
7. USE THE BUDDY SYSTEM! If you are not able to stop yourself from assaulting people, ask a friend to stay with you while you are in public.
8. Always be honest with people! Don’t pretend to be a caring friend in order to gain the trust of someone you want to assault. Consider telling them you plan to assault them. If you don’t communicate your intentions, the other person may take that as a sign that you do not plan to rape them.
9. Don’t forget: you can’t have sex with someone unless they are awake!
10. Carry a whistle! If you are worried you might assault someone “on accident” you can hand it to the person you are with, so they can blow it if you do.
And, ALWAYS REMEMBER: if you didn’t ask permission and then respect the answer the first time, you are commiting a crime — no matter how “into it” others appear to be.
I usually avoid Oh No They Didn’t something fierce, but every now and then…

Do you know how many rape victims drop their cases because reliving their nightmare over and over stunts their ability to move on? They don’t do it so their rapist can go on and live his motherfucking life, they do it so they can live theirs. When you see no light at the end of the tunnel (and having your rapist move to FRANCE and win an FUCKING OSCAR makes that tunnel seem pretty motherfucking bleak) OF COURSE you want people to LET. THIS. SHIT. GO.
But if the opportunity arose to have him actually serve time for the multiple crimes he committed then you’d take that shit up so fucking fast his dumbass head would spin.
The law is not JUST about the victim, it’s about precedent, if we let every criminal go because their victim said “I can’t deal with this anymore!” the legal system would collapse. She has forgiven him and chosen to move on not for HIM but for HERSELF, what other option did she have? He got off scot free! He was living the life, having friends, making money, winning accolades. He was the living the dream of all rapists.
Who cares if the judge was corrupt? That makes no lick of difference when the accused has confessed and then proceeds to break further laws by running.
This quote exemplifies the disgusting mindset of all his defenders:
“My attitude surprises many people. That’s because they didn’t go through it all; they don’t know everything that I know. People don’t understand that the judge went back on his word. They don’t know how unfairly we were all treated by the press. Talk about feeling violated! ”
ARE. YOU. SERIOUS?
So the PRESS, who in no way decide your freedom, are JUST LIKE rapists only with the written word! This just…blows me mind. I refuse to accept or understand this thought process. What is wrong with you people?

Today, I bought one of those Gatorade bottles that had an inspirational quote on it. Mine said “Be tough.” I couldn’t even open the bottle. MLIA.
Today, I took a power nap in class. When I woke up I found out I had a dream where I fought crime with Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. From what the class heard, we won. MLIA
Today I saw a man with a very nice mustache. I complimented it, and he told me I would look good with one. I’ve never been more thrilled in my life. I am a girl. MLIA
Today, I was studying biochemistry when I read about a disease called Edwards’ syndrome that causes profound mental retardation and an oddly shaped head. It reminded me of Twilight. MLIA
