Operation Yewtree is not tearing this country apart. As someone who suffered sexual abuse as a child, and who has never reported it to any authority, I am heartened to see so many people getting closure in adulthood. To be clear, the two things that prevent me from formally disclosing are fear of what this would do to my family, and the kind of suspicion and mistrust evidenced by Lizzie. I would rather keep my truth private than to have the abuse I suffered compounded by hysterical women-hating crap. For the record, not going public does not mean never disclosing. Those closest to me know what happened. The fact that Rolf Harris's victims never publicly accused him doesn't mean they never told anyone, or suddenly found themselves traumatised in adulthood. Plenty of people do talk about it to a few people they trust. But those who don't are no less trustworthy, and their pain is no less real. Shane on you, Lizzie. You awful, awful woman.
