You may not have been abused. In fact, you may have been an abuser, which might explain why you're inclined to tell people to just "get over it" and that they "loved it."
Are you familiar with the story of Amy Bril (aka Armendria), the daughter of Jeremiah Singer, an FGA who committed suicide because, among other things, he couldn't figure out how to get over it?
"One video in Ajemian’s collection includes a vulnerable, prepubescent Amy Bril. She enters the frame and begins dancing, appearing somewhat reluctant. She is in a forest, partially exposed and clothed only in a translucent-pink sarong. In the video, Ajemian says, Bril removes her clothes completely. She was 9 years old at the time.
Bril says that, like many young girls in the group, she was forced to make the striptease videos every year from age 8 until 13. The videos were sent to Berg, who also shared them with other men in the group, she says.
At age 13, Amy became one of Berg’s many child-brides in a mock wedding in the Philippines, she says."
