#ILeftBecause of several reasons, actually.
*CW* ABUSE/TRAUMA

Reason One: My broken arm, broken neck, broken jaw (multiple times!), broken nose, ruptured eardrums (multiple times), burns, and scars from torn flesh were, in fact, NOT "what god says you deserve for being evil". 1/
Reason Two in the #ILeftBecause saga -
I was not damaged goods because my father raped me.
I was not a seductive Jezebel because the evangelist groped me.
I was not ever "the strong woman he needs to be in ministry so get back w/your attempted rapist". 2/
#ILeftBecause Reason Three:

I refused to believe that God required me to never use my brain, to never voice my opinions, and to never contradict a man because of my vagina.

I wouldn't marry a man I could manipulate nor one too stupid to listen to a woman. 3/
