Have you been sexually assaulted?
If not, consider that it can FUCK YOU UP mentally and is not over for the victim when your rapist zips up and walks away into the embrace of societal protection.
I have not, and I've got the privilege that I can walk the streets at night without the fear of it even crossing my mind.
I do have a vague fear of getting mugged or beaten up, and even the threat of the latter played on my mind almost daily for about a year after it happened, so I'd imagine it (or SA) actually happening to me would last a fair bit longer and the intrusive memories be even more intensely horrible
