FULL TITLE: 'I've been raped': Jane Fonda, 79, reveals for the first time that she was a victim of sexual abuse as a child in a frank new interview

Jane Fonda has revealed she was raped in a candid new interview.

The 79-year-old actress and activist also said she was sexually abused as a child while speaking to Brie Larson for The EDIT magazine.

The two-time Oscar winner went on to say that she was once fired from a job because she wouldn't sleep with her boss.

'To show you the extent to which a patriarchy takes a toll on females; I've been raped, I've been sexually abused as a child and I've been fired because I wouldn't sleep with my boss and I always thought it was my fault; that I didn't do or say the right thing,' she said.

I don’t believe her for a minute. This is just an attempt to rebuild her damaged character. She waited until 79 years old to disclose this? She still has no decency!

She said sexual violence is ‘epidemic’ vowing, ‘I will support the Rape Treatment Center for the rest of my life’
If this is true, why do they all support muslims who go around raping anyone and anything?

I became an embodied feminist when I was single and saw Eve Ensler perform The Vagina Monologues.
REALLY? After claiming to be raped and knowing what that's about how could she like/watch that?

Of COURSE she was raped and abused - as an attractive young woman in Hollyweird with no talent outside of her looks and name, it was probably her only path to stardom. Funny that she’s just now revealing it, though - guess it’s OK when it advances ones career.
