It's not always easy to share the whole experience back to the present for victims of sexual assault, but for some reasons it can heal the wounds of others who have gone through similar incidents.
A former television host Kat Alano took to social media and openly shared her dark past when she was sexually assaulted by the assailant she called “#rhymeswithwrong.”
The 34-year-old Filipino-British DJ is the latest celebrity who joined #HijaAko movement on Twitter. The trending topic #HijaAko comes after a heated exchange between Frankie Pangilinan and broadcast journalist Ben Tulfo.
"When I was raped by #rhymeswithwrong still famous celebrity who had smear campaigns to destroy my career&raped many more,i was wearing a Tshirt and jeans," she described.
"He drugged me too,so trying to take my jeans off was difficult for him.Hard to rape an unconscious person in jeans. #HijaAko," She added.
