"But how could I have been a good best friend - or girlfriend, or daughter - when I was so busy balancing the different parts of myself that I never got to actually be myself?"

"Later, I'll think that there are so many versions of this question, versions that have been asked thousands of times by thousands of people thousands of different ways: Why didn't some girl scream even when there was a knife to her throat? Why didn't another girl bit and kick and scratch even when the man forcing himself on her was a foot taller and twice her weight? Some version of this question has been asked by judges and defense attorneys and journalists and random observers because they think they know something about survival; because they believe they know how they'd behave under cicumstances they've probably never experienced."

While reflecting on the terrible things that can occur in gender violence, we still have to participate as a society in uplifting all individuals especially victims. This is real empowerment.

Gender violence is a real issue that happens all the time, this is not talked about enough whether it happens to a man or a female.
