America Ferrera claims in an Instagram post that a grown man sexually assaulted her at the age of nine.
“First time I can remember being sexually assaulted I was 9-years-old,” the actress, who is best known for her role in Ugly Betty, wrote on Instagram. “I told no one and lived with the shame and guilt thinking all along that I, a 9-year-old child, was somehow responsible for the actions of a grown man.”
“I had to see this man on a daily basis for years to come,” she continued. “He would smile at me and wave, and I would hurry past him, my blood running cold, my guts carrying the burden of what only he & I knew — that he expected me to shut my mouth and smile back.”
The post was a participation in the #MeToo campaign started by fellow actress Alyssa Milano, in which women have been encouraged to speak about their experiences of sexual assault following the claims surrounding the disgraced movie executive Harvey Weinstein and other high power figures in Hollywood.

Start naming names of the Hollywood pedophile cabal!!!
Of course they will not mention muzzie cultures.
This phenomenon is fascinating.
Claims of abuse, which I do not deny, followed by an unwillingness to name the perpetrator.
Are they only out for a big pay off? Because, that behavior seems as disgusting as the actions of the abusers in that it perpetuates abuse on future victims.
The entertainment world’s dirty laundry and seedy activities are now about to be exposed. Harvey W. was the match that lit the fuse on this whole thing. Lefty on lefty war. Is this a generational war between the millenials and the 60’s radicals? Who cares? What a great year this is turning out to be. First the NFL and now Hollywood are both imploding as we speak!
as they say in the art galleries,, Show me the Monets!!
Ugly Betty comes out of the woodwork.
I find it difficult to sympathize with these line reading bubble dwelling drama queens who are “finally” coming forward with their tales of woe. Not that Wienstein and the other pervs who call the shots in Hollywood don’t deserve a slug or two in their “best parts”. They knew effing well what was going on since their first casting calls and stayed silent. Especially while smugly pointing fingers of self righteous indignation at Pres Trump (and still do) for things he supposedly SAID.
No, not only for a big payoff. A child doesn’t think of a payoff. It’s fear, shame..whatever..
But she’s grown now and all of these victims ought to name names...Cory Feldman included.
Big lefty, assaulted by a big lefty....no correlation for metal diseased lefty.
Teacher, relative, or priest
Mentally diseased leftist is a redundancy.
The unwillingness to name the perpetrator is because the victim thinks/believes that they did something wrong and are responsible themselves for the abuse. They take on the shame of the abuse and don't want to share it/talk about it/tell anyone.
I've talked about this before here on FR that I was married to a victim of sexual abuse for nearly thirty years. It was her father that did it. I had no idea my now ex-wife was a sexual abuse victim for the first ten years of our marriage.
Once she finally told me, so many things about her, our marriage and the dysfunction of it made sense. Spent twenty years trying to get her help afterwards. Stayed in the marriage until our kids were grown and through high school and off to college then split up and divorced.
I cannot tell you how messed up she was from what she went through. The torment of carrying that shame which was not hers to bear all those years had to be crushing.
To say "one day she snapped" would be an understatement and I didn't recognize her, her behavior, literally anything about her. We divorced, my boys are with me when they're home from school and she's off doing whatever.
As I said in a previous post, the damage done to these young girls/young women by these sick assholes goes far beyond the act of the abuse itself and messes up these women for the rest of their lives. The collateral damage it does to families going forward is near immeasurable.
I could start citing the stats off the top of my head, not going to bother. I'm sure someone would come along and dispute them/ridicule them/make a joke out of them after seeing some of the other threads on this topic over the last few days and I just don't have it in me to set those chuckleheads straight this late at night.
Correct. Same nine year old girl also thinks she did something wrong, caused it to happen or "brought it on herself" and is so ashamed (wrongfully so) that she wouldn't tell anyone for YEARS until it was "safe" to do so. Meaning others with the same/similar experience came forward first.
This whole topic just disgusts me and riles me up like no other. It pisses me off like nothing else what some people will do to a child, in these cases literally defenseless young women and destroy their lives in the process.
I know that the words are inadequate, but I just want to say how sorry I am for what your former wife experienced and has dealt with for decades, and for what the abuse is still doing to your entire family all these years later. I truly cannot imagine, but you helped give me some idea with your posts. She never really stood a chance; none of you did, I guess, given all that she suffered.
I’m so sorry.
I’m sorry for what you all went through.
I found out not many years before my elderly mother died, that she and her sister had been repeatedly molested by a “hired man” and the girls were too afraid and ashamed to tell their parents.
Both of them became alcoholics and my mother had a very tormented life in many ways and our whole family was pretty messed up. Finding that out explained a lot.
America Ferrera is in my prayers...
