I’d like to say thank you to the author of this piece. I’ve been where you are. The way it was written made me cry. I am quite possibly one of the last people that anyone would ever think would be in that position. Yet I was. For 13 years. I have a voice, a degree and a masters, and an attractive face. I’m not a mouse and I stand up for myself. Women like us are triumphs. Not tragedy’s.
