Okay so I’ve never done something like this before but I think it’s about time I shared my story of when
@SeayTayden
sexually assaulted me. Back in November of 2019, I met
@SeayTayden
off of the app Grindr. I was immediately attracted to him without even knowing of his audience.
Almost 6 months ago I spoke out about my sexual assault. I am so grateful that people chose to support me and believe me. My sexual assault story is very similar to many others. I was manipulated by someone I trusted. Many people don’t realize that my story doesn’t end w/ my post
I know there are lots of things I could have done to avoid this. I want to make it clear that the ONLY reason I’m speaking out is because a person with MULTIPLE rape allegations against him still has a platform to spread his toxic messages to his young audience.
The night we met in person we drove around for a while and got to know each other. Later we agreed to go back to his apartment to hangout. Once we got to his place things started accelerating extremely fast.
Despite all of his sweet talk I still refused because I felt pressured. After 30 or so minutes of the compliments and the manipulation, he simply turned to me and said he was sorry. He then continued to put his penis inside of me. Raping me.
I am comfortable in my body and not afraid of sex. That being said I did not want to give that part of me to him the first time we met in person. I made sure to make this VERY clear to
@SeayTayden
.
This is when he started telling me things to try to change my mind. He told me he had only ever had sex with 2 people before me (fucking lie). He told me I was beautiful and tried his best to make me feel special. At one point he even told me he loved me.
Throughout the whole time we were being intimate, he kept telling me how badly he wanted to be inside of me. He begged me for literally hours to let him inside and I continuously turned him down. After I kept refusing he wouldn’t let it go.
I’m not trying to victimize myself by sharing my story. I’m trying to start a conversation about different types of manipulation. As well as spread awareness about different types of sexual assault that aren’t portrayed in the media because they aren’t inherently violent.

Find something better to do with your time than try to make me feel invalid. I know what happened to me. I’m speaking up to ensure it doesn’t happen to others. If I was insecure enough to let this kind of comment affect me, I wouldn’t have said anything.
If you read the message, you will see that Tayden reflects on our time spent together with positive happy thoughts. This completely invalidates my feelings of betrayal and violation. Receiving this message also completely interrupted and set back my healing process.
This is a message tayden sent to me on Grindr months after I spoke out about my assault. While the message might seem like it comes from a good place, it sent me into an extremely dark mindset. I thought I would never hear from him again.
I’m well aware there is no way to prove that tayden is actually the man who sent this message. I only want to share this to spread awareness about how he manipulates people.

I’m sorry you feel the need to question someone’s sexual assault story.. but since you’re so curious he goes to school at the university of Iowa.
@SeayTayden
You manipulated me. I was there for you because I was naive. When someone is manipulated like this, it takes a second to realize what even happened. You are NOT in a position to tell me whether or not you raped me because.. You. Raped. Me

She also has like 5 shows a week, minimum 1,000 cap. Audience, regular studio sessions, and she’s on stage with one of her biggest idols. Her voice is gonna shake. Get a grip.
Reminder: men retaliating by spreading rumors and lies about a person after they’ve been rejected is a form of manipulation. Also.. makes you look
1) dumb and
2) small
The title
#happiness
is very misleading considering the fact that my heart was just ripped from my body and I can’t stop crying.

Congrats queen! We love you so much! I know she’ll never see this but Taylor got me thru some SHIT and has inspired me as an artist endlessly. For her birthday this year I’m releasing my debut single “U Before Me” !!! You can pre order now if you’d like!
If you tell a woman to stop playing the victim after she’s been publicly victimized by one of the largest corporations in the world, you’re ✨misogynistic✨.

V tru someone can be taught rhythm and producers are literally hired to make things sound better. Not everyone has good tone. Some rappers are talented. Some host shows for a reason.
