No, she was still a victim and I’m not trying to undermine that, but at the same time I wouldn’t refer to her as a “sex toy” or “having no say”. She used her voice and agency to try and make things better for the people who came after her.
I think characterizing her as a voiceless object or oversimplifying a complex individual into just a victim does her a great disservice.
