I have been part of this community for many years - it honestly saved my life. It was the first place I could say "I think I was raped" and be heard, supported, without judgement. I'm sorry the others above did not have the same experience, though it sounds to me like some drama was involved in one person's experience, and for the other - I certainly hope time has opened the eyes of the woman who believes that sex workers cannot be raped - last I checked, we're all human, and we all have the human right to control of our bodies, no matter what.
This is one of the few message boards where you can say something, and know that you won't be humiliated or judged for it (and if anybody tries, their post will be deleted). It's a safe place for survivors. I hope people don't listen to the bitter ones below - theirs is not the experience I see on this message board every day.
Jesus. This is one of the most horrific "self-help" sites around. There are 2 views: the founding trio (to be upheld without question) and others. You can't have your account deleted. If you speak your mind you can't volunteer. They won a 25K grant and still troll members for money.
It used to be a good place but now it's a publicity hound for the founders...
