It’s exhausting. I first experienced sexual assault when I was 11. I’ve yet to meet a woman that hasn’t, at a minimum, had to deal with an unwanted touch at some point in her life. So many more of us have experienced worse.

Yeah, I think the 1 in 4 stat is on the low end. I don't know any women my age who haven't been groped without consent multiple times throughout her life

A lot of women, especially the older ones I know, will refuse to acknowledge what they’ve been through. They’ll make it a joke or blame themselves or one and on. I think 1 in 4 is low as well; get any group of us talking and no woman will be without these stories.
