Rape Myths Rape Cases
1,718 words
When I started college, husband was very concerned
about my security on campus. He warned me not to
walk alone at night, not to talk to anyone I
didn't recognize, and to be very aware of my
surroundings. This is good advice for anyone. Many
women are afraid of the person in the shadows
awaiting their unsuspecting victim. In most campus
rape cases, a stranger is not involved. I was
surprised to find out that 75 % of all rape cases
are committed by an acquaintance of the victim. By
acquaintance, I...

Date rape is a term used to describe a rape where
the victim knows the attacker, either closely or
casually, that frequently involves alcohol or some
other drug limiting the judgment of the
perpetrator and the defenses of the victim.
Although date rape is a forced issue, many
precautions can be taken to prevent the crime.
Date rape is vastly under reported because of the
victims guilt, shame, and the feeling that they
would not be believed. For example, in a study
done by the National Center for...

his paper will focus on the social and cultural
conditions that intensify or perpetuate rape. The
causes and reasons for rape are deeply entrenched
in our social structure. We can explore some of
the motivations and circumstances which lead men
to rape. We have learned that some men rape out of
anger and a need to overpower, dominate, and
humiliate. We can also look at some of the

Men And Women Rape Victims
1,920 words
Rape is a forced sexual intercourse against the
will of the victim (Parrot, 1988). Rape is a
violent act, not a sexual act. The myth that men
who rape women are sexually pathological has begun
to be dispelled and replaced with an understanding
that rape is an act of anger, power and control
rather than lust. Rape is not a very pleasant
subject. When people think about rape, they
usually think of a stranger with a knife hiding in
the bushes. He waits for a woman to walk by and
then attacks. But t...

Year Old Girl Child Molestation

"If the occurrence of rape were audible, its
decibel level equal to its frequency, it would
overpower our days and nights, interrupt our
meals, our bedtime stories, howl behind our
love-making, an insistent jackhammer of distress.
We would demand an end to it. And if we failed to
locate its source, we would condemn the whole
structure. We would refuse to live under such
conditions. " Women have grown to accept, not
without resentment though, the male-dominated
atmosphere of the world. Because of...

virtually unknown a generation ago, have now
become a common place. Unlike, a violent rape, a
