noneedforasitter I hadn't even thought about that. Everything she describes, would be no less likely under full criminalisation.
Rosalie posted yesterday another incident. She went to uni to tell someone about her situation, but there was no one to talk to (not clear what she meant.) She went to the toilet. A recent client saw her and followed her and said she hadn't given him enough time when he'd met her. He then raped her in the restroom, and then made two small slices on her forearm to teach her a lesson.
According to her blog, she has been violently attacked at least four times in the past month - twice to the point she thought she might die. She's posted photos of bruises and cuts.
To me, the injuries look self inflicted.
She claims that she doesn't get paid. Her pimp collects all of her money. According to her, she's lucky because she's allowed to go home, but other girls are trapped in the brothel.
She's apparently told someone who tried to help her that she can't quit until next year, but not why.
Offers of help are ignored, and anyone trying to understand the situation by asking any questions at all is cursed at.
She says she lives with her mother - And her mother doesn't know anything about what's going on, in spite of seeing blood in her bed and bruises on her body when she's undressing.
She says that nobody at uni has any idea that anything is wrong at all.
So, she gets wounds to her thighs and forearms, but nobody hits her face. I find this very odd. One careful abuser may avoid the face, but why would a succession of strangers bother?
I cannot imagine why she would tolerate this situation. I've read many a story on here by women in abusive relationships. Most of them blame themselves and make excuses for their abusers. It's like Stockholm Syndrome. But Rosalie never does. She consistently asserts that she is being raped and abused. I'm unable to believe that someone who is not physically compelled but not brainwashed would return to the abuse again and again.
Her rhetoric is full of all the terms of radical feminism, right down to her language for transwomen. It's not consistent with a helpless victim or someone who has been manipulated and worn down into accepting abuse.
