@alice I don't. I agree with your general premise, that's it's a overwhelming and horrific problem that is egregiously common. And given how most say it's worse as a teen, I avoided it by femme presenting much later.

I only mention this because it's a weird feeling when people talk about this kind of thing as if it is a universal fundamental femme experience and where does that leave the few of us who are fortunate to have dodged that bullet?

It's better than the alternative but also othering.

@ellesaurus when I said "never" I suppose that comes with some qualifications.

However, for each qualification—like, say, over the age of 4—I know an exception.

So to say "never" is really to say, "for every person I know, the odds of them having been sexually harassed or assaulted approaches 100% over time, but it approaches 100% far faster for the femme-presenting ones."

Also, I'm sorry for othering you. I understand that (even fucked up) rites of passage are still rites of passage, and I didn't mean to diminish your femininity with my choice of language.
