The Bear

'Why would you choose the bear?'

The Bear wouldn't overhear me being sexually assaulted on a bus, begging them to stop and repeatedly saying no, just to make up rumors of how 'I enjoyed' being f̶i̶n̶g̶e̶r̶e̶d̶ assaulted on a bus.

The Bear wouldn't join in taunting me around school; pretending to have an orgasm, moaning my abuser's name.

The Bear wouldn't call me a whore or a slut.

The Bear wouldn't have asked me if I enjoyed my assault.

The Bear wouldn't make rape jokes.

The Bear wouldn't have created a 'national rape day'.

My abuser was a woman, but I'd still rather trust The Bear.

Always The Bear.
