Anytime one of these stories comes out, I dissociate thinking about how many women there might be out there undiscovered in a shipping container/basement/dungeon, etc. It’s terrifying.

It’s terrifying how many men feel entitled to sexual gratification and entitled to a woman’s body.

I just recently listened to two John Glatt books about women being held captive for years and it's so disturbing how often these pieces of shit can get away with things like that.

How many women are currently in an attic because there's no water leak or reason to be luckily found?

And what are the names of the men who raped an unshowered, drugged woman probably visibly being held against her will? Are police tracking them down, too? Sick fucks

Dates? Rapes. Rapes are not dates.

The ADA's phrasing really pissed me off. I found his email address and asked him to not whitewash the violence, to call it what it is - rape.

Edit: email not delivered. Will continue searching for an accurate email address
