Stacey Williams says the ex-president, whose spokesperson denied the allegations, touched her in an unwanted sexual way in 1993, after Epstein introduced them.

    and people can make their own judgemets about her intentions

    Yes. This is called victim-blaming. Stop doing it.

        I can read someone blaming a victim for not coming forward about her sexual assault sooner quite well, thank you.

          Hopefully in the future sexual assault victims will include enlightened centrists like gronolabar over here in the discussion on when would be an appropriate time to come out with their stories of assault. It’s high time we include more uninvolved but passionate individuals from across the political spectrum in these messy painful conversations.

          Kudos gronolabar, continue to inject your opinions and baseless accusations into the conversation, you’re doing god’s work 🙏

            What I love is that they just accused me of playing politics by saying it’s up to her to decide when to tell her story. What the actual fuck?

            No. No I am not. That is a lie. Playing politics is blaming a sexual assault victim for not coming forward sooner because it would have had an effect on an earlier election.

            I am literally saying that politics is irrelevant to when she should feel ready to come forward with her story. It’s her story to tell when she feels like it.

            I genuinely hope that no one you care about has been sexually assaulted, but if they have, I think you might talk to them about whether or not they would have only told people about it when it was politically expedient to do so rather than when they felt psychologically ready to do so.

                Please do explain how it is “shameless” to say that it’s the victim’s choice when she gets to come forward.

                    No, sorry, I won’t stop advocating for sexual assault victims. I know too many of them.
