@Why didn't I report-- movement !!
Since the pervert questioned the validity of Dr Ford's allegations in a tweet, saying that "if the attack on Dr. Ford was as bad as she says, charges would have been immediately filed with local Law Enforcement Authorities by either her or her loving parents."
Many women have come forward to explain why they did not report their sexual assault to police about 30 years ago or longer!
Alyssa Milano added her voice to the movement.."Every person who refuses to loudly and openly reject Brett Kavanaugh's nomination is telling every generation of Americans that an alleged abuser's career is more valuable than a survivor's humanity," she wrote.

its because of people like DT that women don't speak up when they've been sexually assaulted. This has to change.

I think it happens to most of us. I can tell my own story and I am sure many women we know have their own. Women don't tell because they are ashamed and feel they are to blame. It's extremely common.

Re: @Why didn't I report-- movement !!
why women don't report sexual assault:
1. shame
2. fear
3. embarrassment
4. people will say, "but he's such a good man/boy, why would he do something like that?"
5. loss of reputation
6. "did I do something to cause this??"
7. "this doesn't happen to good girls"
8. no one will believe me
9. good 'ol boys network
10. "boys will be boys!"
