How the fuck can you tell someone you were sexually assaulted and more people sympathise with the aggressor?

You see it a lot in most forms of abuse. People don't like to hear about abuse (unless it's on their own terms) and everyone loves a sympathetic villain. A lot of it, too, comes from people who were abused themselves; they don't want to acknowledge the abuse they suffered (because it's scary and abuse is often humiliating), and so they normalize it in their minds and side with abusive types instead of other victims.

Personal example; My mother almost let me die twice and afaik everyone who knows about it sides with her, because "she had it worse than you growing up", and "at least she did better than her mother," and "she did the best she could", etc.
