Like the other post this is out of context makes us look stupid stop reposting it.
Post the context then
I'm no Oprah fan and I highly suspect she's up to no good. But in this clip, Oprah was talking about the complicated feelings that can arise when a child victim is molested by someone they are close to, who uses "love," attention, and affection, rather than violence and force, to sexually abuse them.
In some cases, there are parts of the relationship, including the physical relationship, that feel good. Many child victims have reported this. She was saying that's part of what makes this kind of abuse so devastating. These mixed emotions can cause the victim to experience immense shame, self-blame, and self-hatred. It can take decades for some victims of this kind of childhood sexual abuse to realize that they were not consenting participants in a relationship with someone who loved them, but innocent victims of a manipulative abuser.
u/Gotrek Considering the point of the post was to highlight the phrase at the end, and in the title, that if the abuser/groomer is good enough at grooming the kid won't even know theyre being abused, there's definitely enough context
Except they were speaking against child abuse. Saying that some don’t report it because they don’t realize it is abuse and she is giving an example which is correct.
It’s a small clip taken out of context. It should be posted in long form not just a sensationalizing sound bite.
It’s like people who rail on the student who rats out the hot teacher…. It’s still abuse even if guys dream about it.
If you have hbo it’s from an interview called Oprah Winfrey Presents: After Neverland
Selective editing is bad when they do it and when we do it
