		</div><p>Actress Jane Fonda has revealed she is a rape survivor and suffered sexual abuse as a child.</p>
<p>The two-time Oscar-winner said she was also fired once because she refused to have sex with her boss.<br />
Jane, 79, made the revelations in an interview with Academy Award-winning actress Brie Larson to mark International Women’s Day on March 8.</p>
<p>She told The Edit magazine: “To show you the extent to which a patriarchy takes a toll on females, I’ve been raped, I’ve been sexually abused as a child and I’ve been fired because I wouldn’t sleep with my boss and I always thought it was my fault – that I didn’t do or say the right thing.</p>
<p>“I know young girls who’ve been raped and didn’t even know it was rape. They think, ‘It must have been because I said no the wrong way’.</p>
<p>“One of the great things the women’s movement has done is to make us realise that (rape and abuse is) not our fault. We were violated and it’s not right.”</p>
<p>Barbarella star Jane also spoke about her regrets as a mother to three children – Vanessa, Troy and Mary.<br />
She told The Edit: “I regret that I wasn’t a better parent.</p>
<p>“I didn’t know how to do it. But you can learn, so I studied how to be a parent.<br />
“It’s never too late. I am trying to make up for what I didn’t know before.</p>
<p>“When I die, I want my family to be around me. I want them to love me and I have to earn that. I’m still working at it.”</p>
<p>Jane, who became an activist aged 31 to oppose the Vietnam War, voiced concerns that a Hollywood “blacklist” could return.</p>
<p>She said: “When I found out what was really happening in Vietnam I didn’t care if I ever worked again. I considered leaving the business to become a full-time activist.</p>
<p>“My father was terrified for me. He remembered the 50s when people’s careers were destroyed.<br />
“It’s possible the (Hollywood) blacklist will be brought back.”</p>
