Confronting Myths: Hecate's Journey Through the Shadows of Anal Rape

The message that men, that people who were assigned male at birth don't have the ability to control themselves, is a dehumanizing message.
In a deeply personal and brave episode of 'Finding OK', Hecate opens up about her harrowing experience with anal rape. This isn't just a story; it's a raw and honest confrontation with the myths and stigmas that surround this often-taboo subject. Hecate dives into the damaging belief that men or AMAB individuals can't control their sexual urges, a myth that perpetuates entitlement and dismisses the importance of consent.
By sharing her own journey, she aims to dismantle these harmful notions and provide a voice for those who feel silenced by shame and stigma. The episode also highlights the unique challenges faced by survivors of anal rape, particularly the extra layer of shame due to cultural taboos around anal sex. Hecate's story is not just about the assault itself but also about the struggle to recognize it as a valid form of sexual violence.
Through her candid narrative, she hopes to help others feel less isolated in their experiences. This episode is a powerful reminder that sexual assault can happen to anyone, regardless of gender or sexual orientation, and underscores the importance of consent, self-care, and the journey towards healing. Tune in to hear Hecate's courageous story and join the movement to break the silence and stigma surrounding anal rape.
