'Girls' star Jemima Kirke reveals she was raped at 22Sep 28 (AZINS) Following Dr. Christine Blasey Ford's sexual assault allegations on Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, American artist and actress Jemima Kirke recently revealed that she was raped as a young adult.

The 33-year-old actress, best known for working with Lena Dunham on the HBO show Girls took to Twitter and made a statement to support Blasey as she relayed her alleged sexual assault by Kavanaugh.

The star began her heartbreaking note, writing, "When I was 22 I was raped by my drug dealer. After I kindly asked him to leave (I didn't want to make him angry), I dragged myself to the hospital. After the various STD tests, the doctor said sympathetically, 'You gotta start looking after yourself.' I believed what he meant was, 'This could have been prevented if you weren't hanging out with a drug dealer.'"

"My rape had nothing to do with my choices. Drug dealers don't rape people any more than a family man does," she added.

Mentioning about her daughter Rafella Israel Mosberg, she concluded the note, 'It is likely that my daughter will one day be sexually assaulted. I can't prevent that. She can't prevent that. But no matter what the circumstances, it won't be her fault.'

She captioned the tweet as, "Im hugely grateful to this woman today. #IBelieveChristineBlaseyFord."

In the past week, author Padma Lakshmi and actress Busy Philipps revealed that they had been raped at a young age.
