Not that I need personal experience to believe the women accusing Jian Ghomeshi, but let me say this: in 2013, Ghomeshi interviewed me (1/5)

Before we went on air, he told me I was "just his type." "Funny, sexy, just the right amount of damage," he said (after talking abt 3 mins).

This within the context of a professional interview, with producers in the room. I was shaken, but tried to hide it. Gotta be game, right?

Later he showed up @ party I was at & wdnt leave me alone. His unwanted attention made me feel like I'd "asked for it." I felt dirty & sad.

This behavior is insidious, but so is a culture that condones it, by turning a blind eye, or shaming the victim. We internalize these mores.

@kellyoxford I'm so sorry. It's disgusting. I really thought it was my fault at the time. I wondered what I had done to encourage him. Ugh.
