week 3 response to Johanna

Johanna, thanks for sharing that post with us. I agree with Jenai, that was very personal and I am quite sure it brought back emotions...as Wood says in chapter 12, it's painful to bring up topics like this. I never believed a man had the right to place his hands on any female. Who and what gives them the authority to do so? I must say, I am such a scaredy cat...I never want to go anywhere because I am so afraid of things like that happeneing...Ok so I'm Corny...i just went to a club the first time at age 25 last year...thats so bad for some one my age...everybody tells me i should be partying my life away...lol but I have no desire to do so. I occasionally go out to a lounge or something, but mostly out for drinks with my closest friends or my boyfriend because I am so afraid of what could "possibly" happen. I also can't believe the cops acted that way toward you, I told my boyfriend about it and he is a state trooper, and he was so shocked!! I always hear storied from him about domestic dispute calls he goes to...and most of the time the men end up with a restraining order against them and it's this big long thing. Thank god you and your friends are all ok though and made it away safely.
