Susan |
At nineteen, stylishly dressed in a fashionable outfit she closed
the door behind the disarray of an alcoholic mother. A proper
lady at only five feet tall, she appeared to the world as though
all was normal in her life! The sweet hairdresser would be
meeting a young sailor for a date and was excited at all the
possibilities! He took her to a club to dance!

In completion the original will be hung horizontally. |
She awoke nude, in a closet, with her underwear wrapped
around her head.It was nineteen fourty three, and that was
not a lady like position to be in. She didn't remember dancing,
in fact she didn't remember much of anything.
Mickey Finns, (named after a notorious underworld
Chicago bar owner in the late eighteen hundreds,
famous for drugging his patrons with a sedative,
then stealing their money,) proved to be a popular
way of forcing demure young women, into unwitting
sexual intercourse. Chloral hydrate, a form of sedative
known as a Mickey Finn was slipped covertly into a
woman’s drink. With the innocent woman incoherent,
the male was then free to take advantage of her in an
illicit way. Just like the male victims of the eighteen
hundreds, women had no recollection of what
transpired when they awoke.

Humiliated
and shocked by her state of confusion it was reasoned
that she had been slipped a Mickey Finn. After some time at a
medical facility, Susan was diagnosed with gonorrhea.
Speaking roughly in an accusatory tone a crotchety old nurse
treated Susan harshly. Vulnerable and terrified, Susan felt alone in
her shame. Later the doctor revealed to the nurse that the young
woman was still a virgin, hymen in tack. The nurses voice
softened with the realization that Susan was not the
promiscuous young woman as first surmised!

I'm always surprised at the interesting colour that occur digitally. |
To
this day, it’s a mystery how Susan kept her virginity after being
assaulted. It was assumed that the sailor attempted to violate her,
was either frustrated at her small size, or at risk of being caught
in the act. Either way, his appalling actions caused Susie great
pain and degradation, resulting in months of care for a
Bartholin Cyst. Terrified she’d never be able to have children,
she resigned herself to never marry.

Another interesting colour combination... I don't mind it! |
However Susan did marry Al two years later, divulging
early
in their relationship the possibility of infertility. Although
she suffered with Bartholin Cyst flare ups her entire life
she bore two children during her forty one year marriage!

I was a very developed eleven year old when my mother
shared her story. My daughter was also very young when I told
her. It made us acutely aware of how anyone can be covertly
drugged by acquaintances or even people they think they know.

My mom was ahead of her time talking about this subject!
She'd be proud to see women finally speaking out!
I know I sure am! #metoo
