ABSTRACT
In this narrative inquiry/reflexivity piece, the author discusses their own emotions, thoughts, feelings, and relationships as related to dominant patriarchy and related rape culture in the context of a keynote speech they gave five years ago. This speech was originally delivered at a university based “Take Back the Night” gathering and march. This is followed up with a current update on their experiences as they relate to the post-rape age. The piece concludes with a comment on the changes in society in the context of challenging cisgenderism and rise of the “Me Too Movement.”
