Thank You for Raping Me 2nd Edition

By Athena Ives

From being raised in a cult, to patrolling the streets of Fallujah, Iraq (2008) with an all-male infantry unit in the United States Marine Corps, Athena shares the most soul crushing events of her life and experiences.

Thank You for Raping Me is a raw, brutally honest account of a child's quest to become the superhero she knew she was destined to become. Similar to the stories of other superheroes, Athena suffered extreme loss along the way. The trauma she experienced became her superhuman strength, and she has used this strength to fight against rapists and child predators. She shares these experiences in order to shed a light on the truth of sexual assault, what women encounter in the military, and as fulfillment of a promise she made to the horrifically abused women and children she has met around the world.

Athena Ives is a Marine Corps Lioness, Certified Human Trafficking Investigator, Sex Crimes Consultant, and Forensic Psychology Doctoral Student. From surviving a cult, familial child rape, combat, and MST, Athena combines her education, experience, and 25+ years of studying child predators to help prevent sexual assault through education, informed training and empowerment.
