I think it's important that everyone in our group knows what we are up against.

16. Liberal Loner, what you just wrote is why it is so important for this group to be a safe haven...

I like you, was battered and abused and have many stories to share with the group to further my growth and maybe help others.

Many women are victims of incest, rape, assault, battering, forced into prostitution, sold as sex slaves, verbally abused and god only knows even some worse stuff....

People like you and me who have experienced some of this in real life deserve this place to share our experiences and ask for help and opinions without outsiders trolling this forum looking to discredit, make fun of or accused of having a persecution complex or crusader complex and dragging it out into the public domain.

Our group should be given the same respect and privacy that was rightfully demanded by others for the mental health group.

It's quite ironic that those who are attacking us now, fully understood this concept just few short months ago.

They all really need to Cease and Desist with their attacks on women.

Bad enough we have to fight off the Republican Agenda against our own bodies without having to be battered in safe haven group on a democratic site.

Here's a I know exactly what you are talking about.
