“Perhaps an abused girl will deliberately make herself unattractive to her abusers.“

You guessed correctly. Many girls who suffer sexual abuse will make themselves unattractive to men. Many victims turn to food as a crutch.

Alison “Nellie Oleson” Arngrim claims her brother, Stefan “Barry Lockridge” Arngrim, raped her for three years during her childhood (he is about 7 years older than her).

Like the article says, according to him, the sister has been trying for years to get a ‘financial bonanza’ out of him and others in his family.

If he can get other family members to go public with her accusations and extortion against them he wins the case.

in my day, that was called “playing doctor”, not abuse. But she is accusing him of intercourse and oral sex, which is not quite the same thing.

Lawyers love these kind of jackpots because they’re the only ones that win.

“other kids told leaders they were talking about having sex... at 8 - 10 years old”

Hard to imagine kids even knowing or caring much about it all, much less doing it at age 8-10.

From that quote from Savage, sounds like the family is standing behind him and she might have a history of going after the entire family. If so, that’s good news for Savage, and I hope he doesn’t get immediately cancelled for this mere accusation.

I was surprised as I grew older, to find out how many of the frumpy-looking, sad sack girls in my small community turned out to have been molested by their fathers

-

frumpy-looking, sad sack looks are used by molested females to hide both there bodies and themselves from the attentions of men.

She’s 51? That means she’s in menopause and mostly nutz. Before anyone attacks me for saying this, my reference is what happened to EVERY female in my family including my 4 older sisters and wife. They dun nutz for about 6 or 8 years then they settle out. Not one exception even with EVERY female on my in-law side. Not women’s fault nature slams them.

“While I hope that my sister gets the help she needs to find peace, this needs to end. For many years, she has relentlessly and falsely attacked me and other members of my family to anyone who will listen,” Savage said. “By spreading numerous untrue stories about us in pursuit of a financial bonanza, she has tortured our entire family and estranged herself from all of us. I will fight this groundless and offensive lawsuit and work to put this to rest once and for all.”
