Did you ever consider that your story could be true
you could even have evidence
and STILL
no one will give a shit?
This is a case out of Detroit where some rape kits sat for close to THIRTY YEARS before seeing ANY sort of processing: http://www.wxyz.com/news/100-serial-rapists-identified-after-rape-kits-from-detroit-crime-lab-are-finally-processed

How you feel/think isn't and simply can't be a measuring stick for the validity of a woman's rape claim.

You're operating from a place of privilege. Why do we as women need to "connect" and appeal to men's understanding? Where is the effort on men's side to understand the micro aggressions we deal with on an everday basis, the effort to get to know and respect us simply because we are your fellow human beings?

Dude
We get judged for EVERYFUCKINGTHING
for being a prude
for being a slut
for being what society wants us to be
for being what WE want to be
This point is irrelevant.

This is the most accurate statement in the OP. In summation all the points you've brought up boil back down to no one giving a shit in the first place. I don't like how you're framing your view to fit the "perfect victim" narrative. In trying to understand how rape victims feel, maybe you should ask us why we did/did not report our attacks instead of making it about you and your way of thinking.

Just my 2 cents.
