      Assault is assault. Childhood trauma can last well into adulthood and for a lot of people it takes a lot of time for them to rack up the courage and resources to be able to bring forth their allegations. For example, people questioning their motives and poking fun at them are further reasons why they delay reporting, fear reporting, or don't report at all.

      @@airbender9593Trauma from sex abuse is something that can thoroughly damage someone's psyche. Some people are able to bury the trauma deeply and block out the memories. There are others that are unable to no matter what they try (therapy, medication, etc.). It goes beyond just nightmares. It's deep PTSD. It's a living nightmare. It can deeply affect how you form relationships with other people, and how you see yourself. There are people that have unalived themselves in order to get away, or resorted to deep drug or alcohol abuse in order to numb the pain and horrors associated with their abuse. Counter to what people think, suing in civil court isn't just for all the sake of money. There are cases in which suing in civil court can help open up a criminal case against an individual, or obtain justice when the criminal system is unable to or unwilling to pursue justice on your behalf. (e.g. wrongful death civil suits where courts found the defendant not culpable due to miscarriage of justice so the family had to pursue justice via civil suit)

      lmfao I am the most far left liberal gay atheist you could ever meet and even I think it is wrong!!! but it does depend on how young the kids are. high school? college? then its ok as long as its not mandatory and those who don't want to hear the drag queens read story's can choose not. but little kids? why would they need to ? I'm curious.. why would drag queens need to be around children ?
