But I've always been like, I'm going 84 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:21,040 Speaker 1: to try and fit these into the smallest bra and 85 00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:22,720 Speaker 1: then I always just ended up looking like I had 86 00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:29,240 Speaker 1: four boobs because I was like, yeah, exactly, So a 87 00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:33,719 Speaker 1: lot of that, like girls aren't born being ashamed of 88 00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:36,640 Speaker 1: their bodies, Like no one is born being ashamed of 89 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:40,279 Speaker 1: their body. It's something that's taught. And like you guys 90 00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:42,560 Speaker 1: have heard me talk about on the podcast, I grew 91 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:45,479 Speaker 1: up very very Christian, and Arianna came to church camp. 92 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:47,440 Speaker 1: She was a little bit less involved with the church 93 00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:51,080 Speaker 1: than I was. But it was a tough environment to 94 00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:55,359 Speaker 1: grow up in, especially like hitting puberty earlier, and you 95 00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:59,479 Speaker 1: hit puberty really early. I hit it like ten nine. Yeah. 96 00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 1: I had Winnie the Prood, Winnie the pool training bro. 97 00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:06,200 Speaker 1: I had one from the Mary Kay Nashley Walmart brand. 98 00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:10,920 Speaker 1: Oh awesome, and it didn't have their faces on it. 99 00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:12,960 Speaker 1: It was paying. My older sister bought it for me, 100 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:16,000 Speaker 1: and I was like, I'm the ship, but you were though, 101 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:21,680 Speaker 1: oh god, I love Mary Kay Nashley. But I like 102 00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:25,440 Speaker 1: just remember as not thinking anything of it, Like I 103 00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 1: was like, oh wow, I'm getting boobs. The American Girl 104 00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:30,320 Speaker 1: Doll Book told me this was going to happen. That book, 105 00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:32,720 Speaker 1: the Karen Keeping of You. I feel like every millennial 106 00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:35,520 Speaker 1: girl it's a shared universal experience. It was in my 107 00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:38,479 Speaker 1: elementary school library, and I don't think any other girl 108 00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:41,240 Speaker 1: was able to learn about their bodies because I always 109 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:45,360 Speaker 1: had a detect. I remember like obsessively reading it because 110 00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 1: I my parents never had the talk with me. I 111 00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 1: don't think mine did either. I think it was like 112 00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:54,360 Speaker 1: mostly the book and I just kind of like gauged 113 00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:56,760 Speaker 1: what the rest of life was going to be. Like. 114 00:05:57,040 --> 00:06:00,760 Speaker 1: I also went to a school that was abstinence only education, 115 00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:05,120 Speaker 1: which resulted in several dean pregnancies at the school. Um 116 00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:09,360 Speaker 1: because you can't tell people not to fuck. It doesn't work. 117 00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:11,479 Speaker 1: It doesn't work. You can't tell them about it and 118 00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:14,880 Speaker 1: then be like, but you can't do this, oh totally, 119 00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:19,920 Speaker 1: And like I remember the church like leading this charge 120 00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:24,320 Speaker 1: against guard assil, the HPV vaccine that can protect you 121 00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:28,040 Speaker 1: from getting cervical cancer, because so I wasn't allowed to 122 00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:31,560 Speaker 1: get it because I was told it would make me 123 00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:33,600 Speaker 1: have sex. And I was twelve. I didn't even know 124 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:35,839 Speaker 1: what it was. I was like, well, don't you want 125 00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:38,760 Speaker 1: me to not get cancer? And I didn't understand. And 126 00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:40,520 Speaker 1: the good news is you can now get it till 127 00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:42,320 Speaker 1: your forties. So I got it last week and I 128 00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:43,839 Speaker 1: told my doctor because he was like, why didn't you 129 00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:45,719 Speaker 1: get that? Like everybody does? And I was like, well, 130 00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:49,719 Speaker 1: how much time do you have? Oh that's insane. Yeah, 131 00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:52,520 Speaker 1: And it was just stuff like that, but especially like 132 00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:57,680 Speaker 1: dress code things like I remember like having to have 133 00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:01,800 Speaker 1: at the school, have the male teachers male principle will 134 00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:06,120 Speaker 1: be tell me when I was ten or eleven eleven, 135 00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:08,360 Speaker 1: probably to get down on my knees in front of 136 00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:10,400 Speaker 1: them to make sure that my skirt touched the ground. 137 00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:14,440 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, that's really fuckingh Yeah. And like, and 138 00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:17,680 Speaker 1: I'm not saying that that those men were pedophiles, but 139 00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:20,800 Speaker 1: like you need to understand that that's a really inappropriate 140 00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:24,160 Speaker 1: thing to do to a young girl. And like I 141 00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:26,640 Speaker 1: at that point, like I mean, I looked like a 142 00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:29,280 Speaker 1: ten year old. Like and then they're saying like if 143 00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:32,200 Speaker 1: your bras straps showing, or if your skirt is too short, 144 00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:33,800 Speaker 1: or any of these things, and you're going to make 145 00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:36,200 Speaker 1: men stumble, And like, it is not my fault that 146 00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:38,400 Speaker 1: a man would be attracted to a ten year old girl. Now, 147 00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:41,720 Speaker 1: if if a little boy is distracted by a little 148 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:45,360 Speaker 1: girl's shoulder, maybe the little boy should be talked to yeah, 149 00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:47,240 Speaker 1: and I just don't feel like that's the thing. But 150 00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:50,960 Speaker 1: they're like just talking about how it's your responsibility as 151 00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:55,240 Speaker 1: a woman to not make men stumble and whatnot. And 152 00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:58,000 Speaker 1: I went down a rabbit hole preparing for this episode 153 00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:02,120 Speaker 1: reading about there was there were these books and I'm 154 00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:03,440 Speaker 1: not going to name them because I'm not trying to 155 00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:06,559 Speaker 1: like just attack anybody, but um, there are these books 156 00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:08,720 Speaker 1: that I read when I was growing up that you know, 157 00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:11,880 Speaker 1: we would do Bible studies and we talk about them 158 00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:15,040 Speaker 1: and have you know, question and answer sessions and and 159 00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:16,600 Speaker 1: you know, i'd read them with a group of girls, 160 00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:18,920 Speaker 1: would do like a book club whatever. Kind of a 161 00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:22,120 Speaker 1: weird thing to spend your childhood doing. But that's fair 162 00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:28,200 Speaker 1: for another time. So I read this, this article on 163 00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:30,560 Speaker 1: a Christian blog from two thousand eleven, and I think 164 00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:32,360 Speaker 1: that this was one that I actually did end up 165 00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:37,120 Speaker 1: like I had read at that time. And they reference 166 00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:41,920 Speaker 1: this verse from First Timothy to nine and ten, and 167 00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:44,920 Speaker 1: this is the verse that they're basing this entire teaching 168 00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:48,120 Speaker 1: off of. I also want women to dress modestly with 169 00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:51,280 Speaker 1: decency and propriety, not with braided hair or gold or 170 00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:54,560 Speaker 1: pearls or expensive clothes, but with good works appropriate for 171 00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:58,239 Speaker 1: women who profess to worship God. That doesn't say anything 172 00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:03,720 Speaker 1: about showing your shoulder, Like yeah, it's actually and I 173 00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:05,520 Speaker 1: don't think there's anything wrong with that verse. I think 174 00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:07,520 Speaker 1: that's absolutely telling you to be like, hey, you should 175 00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:09,120 Speaker 1: be a little bit more concerned with how beautiful you 176 00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:13,199 Speaker 1: are on the inside than on the outside. Like it's 177 00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:17,600 Speaker 1: it's just like valuing yourself is more than just your body. Yeah, 178 00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:20,240 Speaker 1: well I don't. It doesn't mean reference your body. It's like, oh, 179 00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:23,800 Speaker 1: don't wear expensive jewelry, don't like flaunt your ship. And 180 00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:26,520 Speaker 1: I think that that's totally fine to say, Like that's 181 00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:28,920 Speaker 1: distracting if you're in church and you're like wearing like 182 00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:31,840 Speaker 1: a pound of diamonds. Like they're like, don't be gaudy. 183 00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:34,920 Speaker 1: Yeah that's what you're Don't be tacky. That's all Timothy 184 00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:36,800 Speaker 1: was saying. I guess that's a bad word to say. 185 00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:42,680 Speaker 1: Don't be gaudy. Be godly, not gaudy. They always have 186 00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:46,000 Speaker 1: these snappy catchphrases like modest is hottest. You know. I 187 00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:50,240 Speaker 1: was like, okay, so funny, because I mean, you grew 188 00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:54,040 Speaker 1: up in that, but I kind of just experienced um 189 00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:58,800 Speaker 1: real Christian you know.

It's so true, and I feel like, so 262 00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:54,640 Speaker 1: I'm going to read some comments from this article that 263 00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:58,960 Speaker 1: I was reading, and this is crazy because these are 264 00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:02,319 Speaker 1: all strangers on you know, in an internet forum, so 265 00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:04,040 Speaker 1: keep that in mind. But these are all things that 266 00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:10,840 Speaker 1: I have heard from someone growing up. Okay, we've raised 267 00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:12,720 Speaker 1: our boys to be attracted to girls with the same 268 00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:15,640 Speaker 1: philosophy as of right now with two teenage boys, they 269 00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:17,720 Speaker 1: do not understand why girls feel the need to flaunt 270 00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:20,000 Speaker 1: themselves the way they do. Not to mention, they have 271 00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:22,520 Speaker 1: a cousin who does wear Daisy Duke shorts, skin tight 272 00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:25,400 Speaker 1: low cut tops and throws herself at boys at the 273 00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:28,240 Speaker 1: age of seventeen, she was pregnant. Her precious son is 274 00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:30,600 Speaker 1: a burden on her because she cannot party and hang out, 275 00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:32,880 Speaker 1: does not understand why boys want to use her, and 276 00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:34,560 Speaker 1: it stated all she wants out of life is for 277 00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:36,080 Speaker 1: a man to hold her and to love her other 278 00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:38,960 Speaker 1: than her son. And I'm like, you're literally telling us 279 00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:41,680 Speaker 1: seventeen year old girl who if she grew up and 280 00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:45,640 Speaker 1: didn't have absinence, like had absence only education, she's not 281 00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:48,600 Speaker 1: gonna know not to like you know what I mean, 282 00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:54,880 Speaker 1: It's it's just insane. And like the attitude towards that girls, 283 00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:58,000 Speaker 1: like literally saying that it's her fault. I mean, God, 284 00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:00,280 Speaker 1: don't even get me in, Like, don't even we get 285 00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:04,320 Speaker 1: into it. It's just crazy. And then like another one 286 00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:07,880 Speaker 1: is what bothers me is that women, even Christian women, 287 00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:10,520 Speaker 1: think it's perfectly acceptable to show my husband and teenage 288 00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:13,320 Speaker 1: son their breasts. News flash, if I can see your cleavage, 289 00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:15,600 Speaker 1: I can see your breasts. I get angry thinking about it. 290 00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:18,840 Speaker 1: My husband and teenage sons are battling sexual temptation every day. 291 00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:21,080 Speaker 1: I'm very frustrated at the women and teen girls and 292 00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:23,840 Speaker 1: our conservative homeschool group who think it's acceptable to show 293 00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:27,520 Speaker 1: their thighs in a miniskirt in their chest. I'm sorry, 294 00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:30,560 Speaker 1: Like that's your husband. I have never seen my boyfriend 295 00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:33,480 Speaker 1: check out another girl. Talk to your son and your husband, 296 00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:36,080 Speaker 1: but talk to your son. I think also, like the 297 00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:41,160 Speaker 1: sexual repression can't help you know, like that that probably 298 00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:43,640 Speaker 1: makes it worse. But like I swear to god, I've 299 00:15:43,640 --> 00:15:46,960 Speaker 1: never once seen my boyfriend check so what is her? 300 00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:49,840 Speaker 1: Her husband's doing something wrong there? And I would think 301 00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:55,840 Speaker 1: in what I've seen and you know, read with people 302 00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:59,720 Speaker 1: who are abstinent and all that kind of stuff, they're 303 00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:03,120 Speaker 1: all we is talking about sex. They're always talking about bodies. 304 00:16:03,160 --> 00:16:06,720 Speaker 1: They're being hyper vigilant of like a woman's cleavage or 305 00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:08,760 Speaker 1: something like well they think you when I'm talking about 306 00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:12,720 Speaker 1: when you should just be able to be Yeah, like 307 00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:15,280 Speaker 1: that feels like more of a sex obsession than just 308 00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:18,920 Speaker 1: like being sexually active. Yeah, if you just kind of say, oh, 309 00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:22,200 Speaker 1: that's normal, she dresses the way she wants to be dressed. 310 00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:24,040 Speaker 1: It's her body, she has a right to do that, 311 00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:29,080 Speaker 1: then it kind of races some stigma there and you 312 00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:33,000 Speaker 1: can stop obsessing over it and taking everything personally like that. Yeah, 313 00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:36,400 Speaker 1: I it's just so weird, and you sent me a 314 00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:38,560 Speaker 1: video on TikTok, but it was the point of the 315 00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:42,120 Speaker 1: video was like, Okay, lust is a cardinal sin, but 316 00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:46,240 Speaker 1: showing your cleavage is not. But why is it women's 317 00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:49,320 Speaker 1: responsibility to make sure these men don't sin when it's 318 00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:53,160 Speaker 1: on them? And there's that verse in the Bible that 319 00:16:53,200 --> 00:16:57,520 Speaker 1: says lust is like to look at a woman and 320 00:16:57,520 --> 00:16:59,920 Speaker 1: and think about sleeping with her, You've already cheated on 321 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:05,080 Speaker 1: your wife. Yeah, so, I mean, and obviously we're talking 322 00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:08,439 Speaker 1: about this in relation to Christianity just because that's my 323 00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:10,879 Speaker 1: personal experience, Like that's where this attitude came from. But 324 00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:13,160 Speaker 1: I know plenty of people who have had the same 325 00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:16,199 Speaker 1: thing happened in the body shaming and the um you know, 326 00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:19,000 Speaker 1: the pressure put on them who aren't part of the church. 327 00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:21,879 Speaker 1: I'm just referring to this because it's it's my experience, 328 00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:24,840 Speaker 1: and I've met plenty of Christians who aren't crazy like 329 00:17:24,880 --> 00:17:30,399 Speaker 1: this either. Um So, another part of high school trauma 330 00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:35,440 Speaker 1: club is your first experiences with boys. And they're not 331 00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:40,040 Speaker 1: always boyfriends. It's just being around boys in school and 332 00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:43,280 Speaker 1: and the you know, just putting a bunch of kids 333 00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:46,960 Speaker 1: in a giant like you know, you're basically just putting 334 00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:48,520 Speaker 1: a bunch of kids in a pot, stirting it around 335 00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:52,119 Speaker 1: and seeing what happens is a social experiment. High school 336 00:17:52,200 --> 00:18:09,560 Speaker 1: is um. I remember when I was in high school, 337 00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:12,480 Speaker 1: actually in middle school too. I just and it occurred 338 00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:15,879 Speaker 1: to me maybe a few months ago. Whenever I was 339 00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:19,119 Speaker 1: walking down the hallway, I was always like brushed up 340 00:18:19,160 --> 00:18:21,680 Speaker 1: against and I just remember like sometimes I could just 341 00:18:21,720 --> 00:18:24,000 Speaker 1: feel like, you know, a touch on you know, my 342 00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:27,200 Speaker 1: body somewhere, mostly my breast, and I'm just like, gosh, 343 00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:30,560 Speaker 1: I need to work on my space management. Because I 344 00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:33,640 Speaker 1: really thought it was just me because when you are 345 00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:36,000 Speaker 1: just kind of like when their guy acquaintances, you don't 346 00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:38,800 Speaker 1: really I'm more cautious of a guy who's interested in 347 00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:41,679 Speaker 1: me and aware of what they're doing or touching me 348 00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:44,720 Speaker 1: than just some random kid I've never talked to. I 349 00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:47,080 Speaker 1: felt like a big thing was like there would be 350 00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:48,960 Speaker 1: those guys who'd be like, oh, give me a hug, 351 00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:51,800 Speaker 1: and like I felt for that I'm so gullible. Yeah, 352 00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:53,040 Speaker 1: and they'd be like, don't you want to give me 353 00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:55,040 Speaker 1: a hug? And it would be like this friend thing, 354 00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:57,040 Speaker 1: and I just was like, no, I don't. But then 355 00:18:57,040 --> 00:18:58,560 Speaker 1: you're like a bitch if you say no, But like 356 00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:01,600 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't want to touch anybody. I don't 357 00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:05,119 Speaker 1: want to touch you know. See. I remember specifically this 358 00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:07,320 Speaker 1: one thing because I was just like, Ariana, you are 359 00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:11,200 Speaker 1: so fucking gullible. It was like, bet, you can't hear it, 360 00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:19,920 Speaker 1: can't hug me as hard as someone so glired. God 361 00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:24,919 Speaker 1: for smart people, we are really fucking stupid, are I 362 00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:30,000 Speaker 1: was probably like fourteen fourteen maybe, and I was just like, bet, 363 00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:35,080 Speaker 1: so you're gonna call a petition? So manipulative it was. 364 00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:39,520 Speaker 1: It was and my scariest experiences with that, I think, 365 00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:41,440 Speaker 1: like looking back, like at the time, you just sort 366 00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:43,159 Speaker 1: of brush it off, But now that I think about it, 367 00:19:43,160 --> 00:19:45,960 Speaker 1: I'm like, that was really fucked. Is. I was in 368 00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:50,639 Speaker 1: um home at class and we were watching a movie. 369 00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:55,359 Speaker 1: I think it was Nightmare at the Museum and it 370 00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:56,920 Speaker 1: was like one of the last days of school and 371 00:19:56,960 --> 00:19:58,520 Speaker 1: I was sitting next to this guy that I've been 372 00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:02,639 Speaker 1: friends with and I thought we were like buddies.

Because the West drama but in middle 376 00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:10,439 Speaker 1: school I had a lot of guy friends because I 377 00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:13,680 Speaker 1: was like in a band and you know, I wanted 378 00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:16,479 Speaker 1: to talk about rock music all the time. And he 379 00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:18,120 Speaker 1: was sitting next to me and we're watching this movie 380 00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:20,800 Speaker 1: together and I felt his hand on my knee and 381 00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:23,200 Speaker 1: I was like, oh what, And I thought it was 382 00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:24,719 Speaker 1: like an accident. I was trying to get my attention. 383 00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:27,560 Speaker 1: I looked over and he just smiled at me, and 384 00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:30,639 Speaker 1: then he literally like, I'm just standing there and no 385 00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:32,639 Speaker 1: one can see what's going on, and he like I 386 00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:35,520 Speaker 1: was like dragging his hand up my leg and started 387 00:20:35,560 --> 00:20:39,080 Speaker 1: like rubbing like my thigh, and I did not know 388 00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:41,200 Speaker 1: what to do. And I was just like, because you're 389 00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:44,280 Speaker 1: you're just not aggressive at that age and you don't 390 00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:46,679 Speaker 1: know how to defend yourself. That totally just brought up 391 00:20:46,680 --> 00:20:50,320 Speaker 1: a memory in my head that is so traumatizing. I 392 00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:53,480 Speaker 1: ended up just being like, Hey, can you please not 393 00:20:53,600 --> 00:20:55,159 Speaker 1: do that? And then he got really mad at me 394 00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:57,399 Speaker 1: and thought that like I. He was like, He's like, 395 00:20:57,440 --> 00:21:01,280 Speaker 1: you're so mean to me. Oh my god, Yeah, fragile malely, 396 00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:04,640 Speaker 1: what happened to you? Um? I was at Hershey Park 397 00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:10,280 Speaker 1: with my family and UM we went to like this 398 00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:14,040 Speaker 1: chocolate world thing, and there was like a three D 399 00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:16,240 Speaker 1: show and I was sitting next to a guy, like 400 00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:18,479 Speaker 1: an older guy, and I think he was like with 401 00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:21,119 Speaker 1: his wife or something. Oh my god, how old are you? 402 00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:26,119 Speaker 1: I was, um, sixteen, Jesus, and I already don't like 403 00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:28,320 Speaker 1: where this is going.

Where did he get the 406 00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:37,840 Speaker 1: fucking gold to do that thing was? I crossed my 407 00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:39,720 Speaker 1: legs and tried to get away from him, and he 408 00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:47,120 Speaker 1: creeped up. Yeah, that's horrifying, some random young girl at 409 00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:50,840 Speaker 1: Hershey Park. And I think that he had to know 410 00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:53,480 Speaker 1: that that you would be too afraid to yell like 411 00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:57,320 Speaker 1: and you know, you could talk about fight or flight 412 00:21:57,400 --> 00:21:59,440 Speaker 1: when it comes to adrenaline reactions like that, but there's 413 00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:02,679 Speaker 1: also free ease. And you know when a lot of 414 00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:05,000 Speaker 1: you hear a lot like, oh, why don't you just 415 00:22:05,600 --> 00:22:07,560 Speaker 1: say no? Or why don't you just tell them to 416 00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:09,679 Speaker 1: funk off? And it's like in that moment, you're just like, 417 00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:12,080 Speaker 1: there's no way this is happening. There's no way that 418 00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:15,680 Speaker 1: somebody would actually do that. This is so unbelievable. And 419 00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:18,240 Speaker 1: it was also like, I'm sitting next to this guy. 420 00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:19,840 Speaker 1: My mom's on the other side of me.
