Why won't they understand?
I'm writing this blog so that stupid, immature people from Monterey Secondary College will understand why I can't be groped or touched in a sexual way:
Last year I met a friend of my dad, his name was Richie and at first I thought he was a pretty cool person, then he really started to scare me; he was coming over almost every night, and sometimes he would even stay the night at my house, when I was alone with him he'd ask me personal questions like are you a virgin, have you ever given a blow job before, have you ever kissed someone older than you, as you might expect I said no to everything he asked, he was starting to creep me out a bit. It was also the way he'd stare at me, its hard to describe but it really scared me.
On a hot summer day he came over for a swim in our pool, I decided to wear a t-shirt and board shorts, I didn't want him seeing me in a bathing suit. After we all had a swim me and my dad went inside to get some meat out cause we were having a barbecue, he asked me if I was ok with Richie staying the night, but I had to be honest and tell dad what Richie had been asking me and the way he'd stare at me, while I was telling dad everything I started to cry, he put his arm around my shoulder and said he'd have a word with Richie. That night while I was in my room I heard dad asking Richie why he was asking me such personal stuff, I heard Richie say that he was trying to find out if I had a secret life that dad didn't know about (bull s**t), Dad just said ok and went to bed, when Richie fell asleep dad came into my room and said he didn't believe a word Richie said and said that he wasn't gonna let him hurt me, then came the night of dads birthday;
It was just before mum and Caine died, everyone was out the back having a good time, by 1:30 I started to feel tired so I went to bed, I must've been really tired cause I fell asleep almost straight away. At 2:45 I got woken up by footsteps in the house, I thought it was mum coming inside to get something, the footsteps were heading for the hallway towards my room, I heard my bedroom door open and close, I was too tired to care, someone came to my bed and that someone put their hand over my mouth, I opened my eyes and Richie was staring back at me, he said "Oh girl, you turn me on", he lifted my blanket and thats when I called for help, about five people ran into my room, dad saw Richie about to get on top of me and said "you sick f***k, get off my baby" and pulled him off me and threw him against the wall, Steven and Gary (dads two best mates) started punching him in the stomach, mum and Caine were with me making sure I was alright, Gary called the police, dad and Richie got into a punch on, everyone who was outside came inside to see what was going on, Steven put Richie's hands behind his back and grabbed by the back of his head, dad explained what happened: "this sick f**k was about to rape my little girl", the doorbell rang, it was the police Caine let them in and they arrested Richie, they asked me some questions and took him away to the police station. Richie is now facing 3 years in jail for attempted rape or whatever its called.
All the idiots in my year level keep grabbing my the waist and touching my butt and no matter how many times I tell them to stop and f**k off they never listen. At the moment for my English class we're doing an assignment on law, we get to choose what we do weather its murder, stealing or anything like that, I chose rape and child molesting and I've put that alot of people who have been raped, molested and sexually harrased can't be groped or touched sexually and it takes them a while to be able to kiss someone, so maybe then they'll understand why I can't be groped or touched sexually.
Thank you for reading this. I just had to get it off my chest somehow.

"What you have been through is very disturbing and your idea to bring this type of offending out into the open is courageous. But just keep in mind that there could be some people who if they make the connection between your topic and you personally may treat you very differently, start rumours or use derogative terms to you. It is a terrible thought, but there are sick twisted people out there, especially in high school." Munter
couldn't put it better myself
i'm not sorry enough about that happening to you

I'm sorry that happened to you, I really am. i mean people might think that just because he didn't get a chance to do anything you weren't scared. But it's still suggestive.
Most people wouldn't tell about it, some do because they want to let the world know that you can speak up. But high school kids are cruel, hell all kids can be cruel. I hope everything works out okay.

I agree with Munter
you better becareful when you do this or maybe you will be made fun of and rumors start about u that are more disturbing then what "he" did to you, and can hurt you just as badly.
I do have to give you credit most people wouldnt go out and tell people about it.
I'll pray for you and your couragous act you are doing. Hopefully people will understand you and other people going through this and not hurt you more, then you were.
<3 Good luck
