They have never wanted to understand. I don’t even think *I* understand.
But isn’t this precisely the reason *someone* needs to tell people-
“Ethical therapy never includes sex.”
....So people WILL know better, so they won’t do the stupid thing that *I* did?!

unfortunately, family and society prefer to turn a blind eye, bury their heads in the sand and continue to blame the victim for these kinds of transgressions. it feels safer for them this way. i agree with you, this is the perfect reason to bring awareness to these issues, and if no one speaks up about them, then people will continue with their ignorant self serving beliefs.
hugs to you
i'm sad that your daughter's reaction towards you was so harsh. it takes a lot of courage to be able to speak up about this, and i admire you for it.
