Dudes I didn't even know from other schools jumped on the rumor train and said they slept with me.10/10/2019
Saw your segment on Katie [Couric] the other night and couldn't believe that you went thru the exact same thing as I did! Nearly word for word the exact same thing happened to me in Jr. High and I believe it really changed me. Who knows what I may have accomplished or how more positive my sexual life might have been if the horrid, untrue rumors about me never happened. When you spoke about going to school the next day and so-and-so and so-and-so were saying they slept with you, I cried, as that is exactly what my experience was. Dudes I didn't even know from other Jr. High Schools jumped on the rumor train and said they slept with me. All this at age 13 and while I was a total virgin!! This was in 1975 and while there was no social media then, it really left some deep scars. Thank you for telling your story. – Laura Morgan-Boyer
