I was sexually abused as well as raped in the past. I'm taking a Womens Studies Class on Crime and we are learning about rape/sex abuse right now. It's making me so depressed. I'm reading how juries don't like it when the victim was on birth control pills. I took birth control pills to treat Endometriosis (I didn't have sex) and I was raped. The nurse told me that she was certain I didnt get my STD I caught from the rape....I guess she assumed that I was sexually active bc I was on those pills.....
Why are rape victims treated like dirt? She knew nothing about me....all she knew was that I was raped and on those pills...and she just concluded that I didn't get it from the rape.
How could a nurse be that cold? My book is so depressing. Its so easy to get away with rape...Also its easy to rape a girl and give her an STD
Thoughts??
