Unexpected place for a flashback

[jay]

One of the reasons I'm cautious and defensive in sensual settings is that my first experience, at age 20, was a traumatic, nonconsensual one. :-(

Standing in the voting booth this morning, I glanced at the list of candidates for State Assembly in my district. The person that instigated (perpetrated?) that encounter was the listed Libertarian candidate.

I froze... then voted for the Democrat.

I knew this person was local, and had actually confronted them over lunch about five years before. She mumbled something about she thought she was doing favors for otherwise-undesirable geeks, and moved on. Sigh.

Oh, ick.

Way to add injury to injury, that.

Yuck.

I have a hug if you want one. Good gods.

Grrrrrrrr.

Wow. That's just an amazing amount of hubris. Yuck.
