What is an Authentic Apology for Committing Sexual Violence?

In her Ted Talk "The Alchemy of an Apology,"  Eve Ensler, playwright and activist, outlines four steps to an authentic apology for committing sexual violence:

• Self-interrogate: what contributed to your being capable of sexual violence?
• Undertake a detailed account of what you did
• Open your heart and allow yourself to feel what the person(s) you victimized felt.
• Take responsibility for your actions.
