Let’s quit feigning
ignorance about this benumbingly shameful fact. A vicious form of paedophilia
is rapidly creeping up on our country. Fathers have become the sexual predators
of their daughters. So has the neighbour; so has the employer; and so has the
admissions officer in our institutions. The cocktail of our national challenges
is getting progressively more complicated. Sorry.
And so, the girl-child, the mother of our
future presidents, governors, Senate presidents and 37 speakers of the federal
and state legislatures and justices faces a bleak future from the sexual trauma
suffered in childhood. She is condemned to carry the heavy burden of sexual
shame for life. Some of the abused girl-children find it difficult to live
normal lives after being so traumatised. It is horrible.
