Also, SA/DV is an appropriate forum for boomer women because it is often not until mid-life that women feel safe, sound, and sane enough to deal with the trauma of their earlier years. Also, many women have been so so busy with raising children, holding down jobs and households, that they never had time to give their traumas a thought until the trauma crashes down on them like a tsunami at mid life. Women are more likely to be raped between the ages of 18-25 (college age.) With so many boomer women with college aged daughters, it is likely that a mother's repressed memory of a date rape or acquaintance rape will come forward as she sees her daughter in college. Of course, there are many chat rooms available on the topics of SA & DV but few are entirely for women, and none are exclusive to boomer women.
