The other day, I was forcibly penetrated anally, and I’m now terrified of the pain, the anger, and the possibility of catching an STI.

To the male and female members who answered my previous question, thank you very much. When I posted my previous question, I never imagined that he would forcefully penetrate me anally. When I tried to run away, he pushed me down and forced himself inside me. I realized that there was no way I could overpower a man. Even now, my stomach and bottom hurt, I feel sick, and I’m beyond angry—I feel sad, frustrated, and utterly helpless. I lost my virginity when I got a boyfriend in college, but this was the most painful experience I’ve had since then. I had met this man twice for dinner only (no intimacy), and three times for dinner followed by a love-hotel date. I hadn’t even told him my real name yet, but he was mild-mannered and reminded me of the actor Fumiyo Kohinata, so I never imagined he would do something like this on our fourth hotel date. Perhaps he thought, based on my appearance and personality, that I wasn’t the kind of person who would seek revenge or report him to the police. As for what I plan to do next, since tomorrow is Sunday: 1. On Monday, I’ll use flextime to go from work to a hospital and obtain a medical certificate. 2. I’ll visit a law office near my workplace and ask to be referred to a lawyer experienced in cases like this. At the same time, I plan to inform the staff at the branch where I registered. Whether or not to report this to the police is a sensitive matter, so I intend to discuss it thoroughly with a lawyer. The risks of dating clubs include: 1. Since hotel rooms are private spaces, you never know what might happen. 2. Even after meeting someone several times and becoming familiar with each other, some people’s attitudes or preferences can suddenly change. 3. You need to keep in mind the risks of STIs and pregnancy. 4. If the other person is married and his wife finds out about the relationship, she may seek compensation. 5. Even after becoming close, you should never share personal information such as your address, real name, or occupation, etc. There may be other risks as well, but these are the lessons I’ve learned from this experience. I’ll have to pay the hospital bills and legal fees out of my small savings as the price of this experience, but I feel I may be unable to trust people for quite some time. This time, the issue concerns the man’s sexual preferences, but for example, in cases involving problems such as: ◆ the amount of allowance offered to a woman, ◆ stalking, or ◆ a woman showing up at a man’s workplace or home, if Universe knew of a law office where members could seek advice when trouble arose, and informed male and female members about it at the time of registration “in case something happens,” I think members would feel reassured. For a while, I’ll probably lose faith in people—and in men—and may no longer be able to be alone in a hotel with a man. I’m very grateful that I hadn’t shared personal information such as my real name, address, or company name. I’m sorry for worrying everyone. And thank you so much for your warm, considerate answers. I hope that most male members are decent, gentlemanly people like those who responded.
