Deviation Actions
After discussing this with my staff, I’ve decided to create a Vent Art folder, a place for our deviants to vent their emotions and express themselves.
I have thought about including a folder for art that lets survivors vent their emotions. As a survivor myself, I tend to express my pain through my art as well.
Our group had, once upon a time, accepted submissions like this but due to the fact that some submissions were off-topic and spammed the group with unrelated material, we've been stricter on what submissions to accept regarding these themes.
Likewise, the deviation in question does not specifically have to state sexual abuse explicitly, but as long as you include how your artwork's theme relates to supporting our group's goals in the Artist Comments, such as, ''My art expresses my emotions and what happened to me'', that's totally acceptable. Or if the theme of your piece is clear.
So keep that in mind and please don’t abuse this opportunity to spam the group with art that has nothing to do with abuse, otherwise your submission will be declined.
Vent art is meant to be an outlet to express your pain and experiences, since some people are not comfortable with explicitly explaining their experiences. Again, as long as a disclaimer is added to your piece and how it relates to the group, then your submission will be accepted.
Please consider the following submissions as examples of ''vent art'' wingsofcrippledglass.deviantar…
Any questions or comments or conerns, just shoot me a note or leave a comment below.

The Strange Lady
You mock her humiliation, you don’t have to feel her shame
Every day in so much emotional turmoil and pain
This life doesn’t feel good for anyone
Sex for drugs
All the time feeling like a worthless bug
You duck your head, don’t look anybody in their eyes
I am lucky
I’ve hung on to vestiges of my stinging pride
Lucky that I don’t stare out of hollow dead eyes
Some of us have been so used
From years of getting wasted and abused
That theres nothing left inside
No joy, no self esteem, no pride
A hollow core
That the world ignores
Cast down on the street as filth and denounced as whores

Feel free to refer to their journal for more details:

This utterly disgusts me. It amazes me how in this day and age, something like this can still happen, even in a predominantly white small town community. The fact that even the adults encouraged such behaviour is outrageous. I just don't understand the ignorant mindset of the human race.

Little Monsters (2012)
A really interesting film I recently watched, and I would like to share. Available here: http://vidshark.ws/vv.php?Id=cc03ae806f84740b24b2e3dfb37209a1
It was inspired by (maybe even loosely loosely based on) the real life brutal murder of James Bulger, a murder that still haunts and rattles the U.K. (the film though is less violent).
It's an independent film, so don't expect any big budget tropes, but it's interesting. The film garnered much controversy on its subject matter. Many people who remember the real life murder were offended by it.
Anyway, the film itself does not bring this issue to light, but based on some recent research, it w
