I have lost my dignity. I have lost my sense of self. I have lost my career path. Friends. Peace of mind. Safety. Sense of joy in my sexuality. But most of all thave lost my faith in this, the law. The system I believe will protect me. It was the system I dedicated my life to.
A woman’s experience of sexual assault. It does not fit the mate-defined system of truth, so it cannot be truth, and therefore there cannot be justice. The law has been shaped by generations and generations of men.
We don’t interrogate the law’s own assumptions. Instead we persist on interrogating the victims. The law is an organic thing. It is defined by us. It is constructed by us, in light of our experiences.
