Sexual harassment:
The underbelly of Hollywood is a miasma of abuse. Dotty tried her best to protect her protegée from nasty producers, directors, and sometimes even fans. She refused to subject Sara to casting couch practices and avoided as much as possible to work with sleazebags. Unfortunately, she couldn't protect Sara from everything. Several artists and music producers tried to sleep with her, some groped her or forced her to wear revealing costumes for video clips.
As soon as she became famous and rich enough to decide for herself, Sara managed to avoid working with awful producers. That didn't stop some of them from groping her or making indecent proposals to put her music on air or to ensure she had collaborations with the artists she liked. She's had crazy fans in the past, trying to break into her house or those who groped her during her public apparitions. She doesn't like the negative attention or being touched without her consent and she's tried to bring awareness to the topic several times. It even happened, sometimes after she started to date Homelander, that a host during a ceremony groped her in public, making her lose her composure and freeze on the spot.
Has she been slut-shamed? Yes, unfortunately, but she always pretended that it didn't matter to her when in public. In truth, it made her feel insecure to know that some people perceived her as being a pretty woman they only wanted to fuck or who was only good for it. It made her feel insecure to be talked about on tabloids which always pick her body apart or slut-shame her when they can do so. Sexual harassment also happened in her previous relationships, especially with Brett who pushed it further. Unfortunately, he decided that she was his property and he decided that she should be available to his needs anytime he needed her. He was used to touch her and went as far as to force himself on her. It took a while for Sara to reclaim her body and sexuality after the number Brett did on her but No matter what, her reaction would always be the same: She would freeze on the spot, unable to react and the rare times she would react, it would be with violence.
