It's as if the woman is always 9 years old--or 11, or 12, or 13. It's partly a dual thing--the reactions of other people keep the person at the place and time where the rape happened. That's why when I am asked, What was your family like? I don't know which way to go, what truths to tell. What I am really saying is that I think the person who has been raped has to create a NEW PERSONALITY where the rape is integrated. The person has to become healthy through this CREATION. Thanks for your willingness to look at this problem. Andrea
