This being a gendered issue focused only on women is not my experience. I felt it deeply as a man. And it meant not challenging other people’s faith. Not causing them to lose or begin questioning their faith, in any way. It had little to do with anything not just sex. Also, I felt very much restrained from sexual expression. I’m a feminist but I don’t understand this language used, diminishing the sexual trauma this can do to men, and presenting the argument that men get a free pass. In what church? I tune in, and what Is get is that my trauma is not real.
