New anon speaking

(Anonymous) 2014-03-25 05:22 am (UTC)(link)
I am a grown woman and I have experienced that fear, but it was only that. I don't have a car, so over the years I've trusted men to drive me places occasionally. Strangers, acquaintances and coworkers, bosses: men who had nothing to lose by taking advantage of me. I was afraid sometimes, but none of them ever did anything. Now I can't help but be less afraid because just as other women's experience has trained them to be, my experience has trained me not to be. I can't believe this is as rare as everyone I know says it is. I'm completely average. I'm not special enough to have some magical invisible assault repellent.

You're missing the point, though. No one is saying that most women go through life in a constant state of fear, but that at some points in their lives, they will have experienced that fear. And that when women find themselves in certain situations, the fear is likely to arise. Whereas men will find themselves in the same situations and not think anything of it.
