Sexual Verbal Abuse?

[MisterCatLady]

Not sure if this is the right place for this. Next week I want to tell my therapist about an element of my trauma that was strictly discussion based (i.e. My abuser discussing my body and masturbatory practices with me and his friends). Is that called something? I have some gender dysphoria that I believe stems from this in particular. I don't know how I want to bring it up and I want to do my own research beforehand. Maybe this just falls under grooming?

In terms of sexual abuse without contact, that is still sexual abuse. My grandpa abused me physically then moved onto masturbation and porn watching in front of me; still sexual abuse. Sorry for your experience and it's repercussions.

Sexual harassment, in my book / as far as I know.

Grooming would be the process of normalizing it.
