@FabulousLVNV Is it okay if it's girls?
@cathyshepherd unsure what you mean love, but no, not ok. Period.
@FabulousLVNV What I mean is if the claims were about Roy didling little boys there would be outrage all round.
Little girls it's somehow okay - like they are more virginy and it's somehow commendable to persue little girls. It is sick, sick.
Their is alot of back slapping in Roy's camp because they are all at it.
@cathyshepherd Yes. There’s even a double-standard when it comes to that. I hope this sentiment of outrage continues, because it’s been a dark, insidious part of our society for far too long. Enough!
@FabulousLVNV It has to end. Maybe being open will help. Not being ashamed of being the vicitm may help.
@cathyshepherd Yes, and I believe this latest wave of exposure from those who have been abused have helped others to find the courage to tell their stories. The amount of #MeToo...Well. No explanation needed, right?
@FabulousLVNV I think it is very uncommon NOT to find a #metoo story with women. It is pretty common to find a #metoo with men as well but there is so much more stigma associated with it. Children have a right to demand protection from society - so often they are failed.
@cathyshepherd 100% agree. Even with the recent open this to discuss #MeToo, I think there are a lot more that still are afraid to speak out. A LOT more. I think really we have just begun to peek around the corner of confronting the hard realities, but it’s a great start! Let’s hope it continues!
@FabulousLVNV We are just in the end stages of a Royal Commission into Child abuse. They went through everything, churches, schools, detention centres, sports groups, scouts, the salvos, homeless centres.
It was pretty painful and ugly.
@cathyshepherd Oh god. That makes my heart ache.
@cathyshepherd Yep. Always the most vulnerable. It’s how they exert power. from powerful CEOs all the way down to plain old sick adults that have no other power than to wield it over little kids. 😔
