[quote=Anonymous]Raped by an acquaintance of a friend when I was 21.  In my parents' home, with my parents there, and my friend asleep in the same bedroom at the time.  When I woke the next day, very late and alone in the house, I was very confused, very foggy, and horrified and repulsed by what I could feel physically.  It was clear to me that I'd had unprotected sex, but I couldn't figure out how or why or what could have happened.  I called my friend who said there was no way I'd had sex - she was with me the entire night, we'd slept in my bed together, and she thought she would have known.  She then called the acquaintance - whose friends had driven us home from the bar, and who had stayed over with us at my parents house for some reason - who said we'd had consensual sex.  My friend believed him.  I didn't know what to do - I was just horrified and sickened - so I looked in the phone book and found a number for a pregnancy hotline.  They suggested a rape crisis hotline, but I didn't call.  I tried to get ready and drive to work, but turned around after a mile because I realized it was utterly unsafe for me to be driving.  I was drinking the night before - it had been my 21st birthday - but I definitely didn't drink enough to feel so groggy the next afternoon.  I remember him buying me a beer at the bar, and oddly it was several years before I realized that he probably put something in it.  I only ever recalled snippets from that night - flashes of being on the floor of my bedroom with him, him penetrating me anally.  I never told my parents, and it was years before I called it rape, even to myself.  I couldn't tell you what he looked like - that night was the first and only time I met him, and I wasn't attracted to him - but I remember his hair.  Almost 2 decades later I still feel nauseous and repulsed when I see men with long blonde hair.[/quote]
