My first poly experience was brought about by an adult man hunting down a SOPHOMORE IN HIGH SCHOOL under the excuse of his JUNIOR IN HIGH SCHOOL girlfriend's lack of same-sex experimentation when he had done his.

Even though I accepted under the caveat that I would not have sex with him, he attempted to rape me through whittling me down from my position. "I'll use protection", "I'll be gentle", etc.

This was pre same-sex marriage being the law of the land so I was extra vulnerable. I wouldn'tve considered dating a girl who was dating an adult man if it weren't for the fact that that was literally the only girl who showed interest in me in high school, when same sex dating was completely taboo.
