[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PS- and that she didn't tell anyone over the years... well, sometimes it's a shameful thing

Again, this may or not apply in this situation, but please let's not perpetuate the narrative that women who didn't tell other people at the time must be lying, or if no other vicitms come forward, the one who has is lying[/quote]

I'm a PP who expressed discomfort with the whole thing.  I absolutely do not want to perpetuate the narrative that women who don't come forward must be lying or anything like that.  My discomfort is first and foremost with her lawyer calling another alleged victim a liar when her own story is imperfect.  But on top of that, she didn't need to write AND publish AND aggressively promote a book about it to be believed.  A book touting a method of memory recovery that she happens to be financially invested in.  That's extra.  It is, of course, her right to do so.  But it leaves me with a lot of uncomfortable questions.  Does anyone care what I think?  Nope.  But a lot of other people seem to have this same discomfort.[/quote]
