Amy Schumer lost her virginity through rape
Comedian Amy Schumer recently revealed to Marie Claire in their August issue that the first time she had s** was non-consensual.
The 35-year-old star stated that she didn’t realize how severe the experience was until she revisited her old journal entries while searching for content for her upcoming memoir, The Girl With the Lower Back Tattoo.
Schumer recalled the incident, “When it happened, I wrote about it almost like a throwaway. It was like, ‘And then I looked down and realized he was inside of me.’ He was saying, ‘I’m so sorry,’ and ‘I can’t believe I did this.'”
Although this isn’t the first time that Schumer has spoken about losing her virginity, it is the first time she has described it as a non-consensual act.
Schumer also mentioned the encounter last month in Vogue, where she admitted that she wasn’t promiscuous and didn’t engage in sexual activity until she was 17 years old.

Schumer also discussed her relationship with s** and stated that she didn’t give a blowjob until college.
However, Schumer has also had other non-consensual experiences with s**.
In her interview with Marie Claire, she recounted a situation where an ex-boyfriend ignored her rejection and persisted with his advances.
“I was saying, ‘No, stop,’ and it was just completely ignored,” she explained.
Schumer stated that the men involved in these experiences are no longer in her life and that she doesn’t desire to punish the man who took her virginity.
She explained that it was 17 years ago, and many factors contributed to the incident.
Schumer’s sexual experiences have also made her more aware of rape culture and victim-blaming.
“You know, with the rape survivor, it’s not just shaming, it’s fury. It makes people so mad if you’re not a perfect victim,” Schumer explained.
However, Schumer also discussed her current relationship with her boyfriend, Ben Hanisch. She revealed that she feels like Hanisch is her first real boyfriend.
“There are guys who, if they heard me say that, would want to punch me in the face, but yeah, it’s the truth,” she stated.
Schumer admitted that being in love is “the scariest thing in the world” and that she worries about the possibility of Hanisch leaving her.
Schumer’s memoir, The Girl With the Lower Back Tattoo, will be released on August 16th.
In an interview with ET, Schumer revealed that the memoir will cover a range of topics from her childhood, family, and feminism to her big break in the entertainment industry.
