Key points from the interview:
- How the experience of sexual violence leads to crippling shame.
- How, within certain comminities, there is a further risk or ostracization and shunning from the community (or at least the fear of it)
- How much more they want to do within the crisis centre.
- How the topic is just too uncomfortable for some people.
- How we as a society HAVE to wake up to this epidemic.
- Why some people minimise what happened as it is "not as bad" as what has happened to some people.
- How some survivors wait at least 2 years before their case comes to court.
- How anyone can be a victim of this at any time
