Awareness includes understanding the difference betweeen myths and truth. Let's shed some light of truth on these falacies.
Myth: "Women are physically powerless against men."
Myth: "Women secretly want to be raped."
Myth: "Only women of bad reputation get raped."
Myth: "It could never happen to me."
Myth: " Only young and attractive women are raped."
Rape affects ALL people; age, race and economic status do not matter.
Proper instruction and practice, reduce fear and prepare a woman. She CAN defend herself against men!
Rape is an expression of power and control.
The belief that women secretly want to be raped is another form of placing the blame on women and justifying aggressive masculine behavior.
