Psychological damage can take a big toll on people. It can be a case of being considered a survivor because she's still a functioning human being.

And that psychological toll can also lead to suicide. So "survivor" can be taken literally.

new requirements have dictated that survivors of sexual assault be referenced as survivors instead of victims because they have persevered through trauma alive.

"rape survivor" is generally the preferred nomenclature, rather than "rape victim".

Your wording make it sounds like the survivor name is Ghislaine Maxwell.

Imagine how awful it is to be raped That add to that being very young without real world experience or then add to that that it was an ugly orange dude.

I’m amazed she is strong enough to stop be here. I wouldn’t be

The whole thing is awful, obviously. And it's a bit grim making a rape tier list. But being 14 and then you get to the creep island so that short haired cunt can teach you how to pleasure old ugly men is a fucking horror show. No matter what happens (or obviously doesn't happen because americans are fucking cowards) to that rapist, it will be too little too late. Even the worst punishment or execution you can think of is all in vein, because he got to live that long not only scott free, no, they made him president... TWICE.
