It’s never easy to talk about trauma one has faced, let alone something that leads to a troubled childhood. But Miss Universe USA 2015 Olivia Jordan just recently opened up about her teenage years when she was molested and raped and we could not be more proud of the gorgeous diva.
In a lengthy Instagram post, Olivia talked about how her body and mind was traumatized and how she is still recovering from the bad experience. “I was molested as a child and raped as a teenager”, she began. Her revelation was part of a lengthy post where she aired her sentiments on laws concerning abortion.
She went on to talk about it as she wrote, “Decisions were made for my body without my consent. My body and mind have been traumatized in ways I am still recovering from many years later.”
Talking about her view, she also clarified how she wasn’t imposing her view on anyone. She wrote, “I used to get angry when confronted with anti-abortion messaging. I used to want to yell and scream back how I felt. But then we would just have two people screaming. I see you. I hear why abortion is scary to you. I was educated in Catholic school, taught abstinence only “sex education”, I’ve watched a video of an abortion procedure, and I’ve done my research on both sides. I won’t impose my beliefs on you, no one will ever force you to have an abortion.”
