[quote=Anonymous]Repeated abuse from my stepfather from ages ?? (3 and a bit is the earliest I can remember) to around 10, when I finally told him no. I told a babysitter around the age of 4, and they told me it was a bad thing, but never helped me. I didn't tell my mother because I thought she knew that "daddy" always came to play with me before bed.

Mother left him, met another man, and I was abused by stepbrother from around 12 to 13. We were caught and I was blamed for being a participant. Of course, it didn't matter that he was more than 5 years older and had actually served jail time for sexual assault and rape. By then, I knew how to be a good "victim" and just kept quiet.

I won't get into details of either, because it's pretty horrible.

Spent my teenage and early adult years being fairly "promiscuous" by a lot of standards. Part of it was trying to find my self worth through love, and the only love I understood was sex. Part of it was not knowing that I COULD say no. Ended up doing a lot of things I didn't want to.

Finally ended the cycle a few years ago with therapy. So glad to know I have control of my body and my life and that it doesn't have to be that way.

Pregnant now and if I have a girl, I'm scared about how protective I may be of her, but I know that enough horrible things happen under your own roof, and not necessarily out in the scary world. [/quote]
