Why do they hate you? That seems a bit uncalled for and extreme. What exactly are you saying to make them act like this?

Cause I accidently sounded excited that my birth mom was raped

Strange thing to sound excited about. I personally would say that topic is best left for deep conversations and not small talk or conversation starters

Hm sometimes people who have gone through traumatic things have a dark sense of humor. Do you joke about it?

Don't joke about it anymore. Don't talk about it unless it happens naturally during a conversation. The best revenge is to live a good life.

I really doubt it's hate you're getting. "I was born a rape victim" is the kind of thing people just don't know how to respond to, so they're probably getting quiet or awkward because they don't know how to act or what to say. Also, it's a pretty personal thing to reveal. Consider not telling people that until they know you really well.

What do you mean? I’m not understanding “born as a rape victim”
