"Letterhead Stories" is a small story that Jennifer wrote when she was found in the storage room when Jennifer was 48 years old. It is a piece of a story about the sexual assault of a 13-year-old underage Jennifer who has been covered in dust for many years.
The film is based on the personal experience of Jennifer Fox, who later became a screenwriter and director. The film uses an interlude to tell the story of the family education and adolescent minors of a typical high-productive American family in the 1970s. psychological growth experience.
What is Nonviolent Sexual Assault?
The phenomenon in which men use their power and their own status to coerce women psychologically, socially, and sexually by means other than violent means, is called "non-violent" rape.
The film is mainly developed by two lines around Jennifer, one is her now at 48 years old, and the other is her underage at 13 years old. Jennifer, 48, read the letterhead she wrote as a child from the perspective of the audience, showing her psychological activities as a victim, so that the audience can know what she was thinking in those days.
Most of the time, as a bystander, it is difficult for people to know what the victim of sexual assault is thinking, and Jennifer, the protagonist of this story, did not feel like a victim of sexual assault for a long time. She even thought that the perpetrator Bill was just one of her boyfriends, a guide for her to get rid of the shackles of her original family and pursue freedom and love. Even today, 35 years later, she still insists on not getting married, just because Bill told him when he was 13 years old that marriage is terrible and a bondage.
13-year-old Jennifer grew up in an unhappy family. Although the family conditions were good, the relationship between family members was tense. The rich patriarchal father and the mother who was too busy to educate their children arranged her into an equestrian training camp. , guided by the beautiful equestrian coach Mrs.G and the nearly forty-year-old track and field coach Bill. The two gained Jennifer's trust by revealing their affair to Jennifer and became her best "friends" in adolescence.
Even after the training camp ended, they still maintained a relationship of correspondence. The contents of the letters were very positive. After learning about Jennifer's dissatisfaction with her family, the two continued to encourage her to be confident and self-improvement, to become independent from an uncaring family as soon as possible, and to escape. unfortunate home.
Every weekend Mrs.G would pick Jennifer to his farm for the weekend, where Jennifer experienced the warmth of family. She believed that Bill and Mrs.G were the ones who truly understood and cared for them, completely trusted them, and had no guard against them. Jennifer's family has no doubts about these two people who are not relatives and not related, and they have no concern for their daughter, not to mention, provide relevant education and self-protection to her adolescent daughter. In this way, they put their daughters into the hands of their abusers.
It was in such an environment that Bill exercised mind control over Jennifer, he said to Jennifer: "Your parents are afraid of the world, afraid of living free, they can't accept that you are about to become a woman. You shouldn't hate them, you should Have pity on them, they can't be as brave as you, you're not afraid to live."
"Jennifer, you're really special. You're mature, and I want to save you from stupid young boys."
Bill guides Jennifer with such seemingly positive language, making Jennifer think that only having sex with Bill is mature and can independently control the performance of her life. Adolescent Jennifer also just wanted to make others feel different. (This is also the inner appeal of most adolescent girls and boys, which shows the key to adolescent sex education.)
So when Jennifer didn't even have her menarche, she was sexually assaulted willingly. "I feel pure happiness, like being in heaven, I finally have a sense of belonging," she wrote in the letter. "I love him and he loves me." "You think I'm a poor victim, but So what? I'm not a victim, what I have is unique."
But 48-year-old Jennifer knew, and the audience knew, that this was nothing but a means of sexual assault by Bill and Mrs.G. Even Jennifer was not their only victim, they even attempted to have a threesome or even a foursome.
There were only zero and N times of sexual assault. Bill took advantage of his profession to continuously lure young girls into sexual assault. After 35 years, he did not receive any punishment, but instead became a "master" in the sports world. Here, Bill uses his unique PUA to firmly control the victim's psychology. Even after the murder, he still pretends to be hurt, so that the victim firmly believes that he is the winner of this "relationship". Bill was the more injured and broken one.
However, in fact, Bill left her, left them, and still lived a good life, even better, and was still looking for his next goal. What's even more ironic is that perpetrators like Bill do not need to reflect and repent, but victims like Jennifer continue to heal and adjust the trauma they suffered when they were young in their long lives, and some people even spend their entire lives healing their unfortunate childhoods. .
In this story, the failure of parents and the lack of sex education contributed to Jennifer's tragedy. The existence of non-violent sexual predators like Bill destroys the lives of many children of unsound minds.
"After thinking about it for a few days, I came up with the only solution,
I can't just love the teacher, I have to love him.
The person you love can do anything to you, can't they?
What a great thing thought is! I am a fake of my former self.
I have to love the teacher, otherwise I will suffer too much. "
