Rapes has no regard for age, race, sex, physical appearance, marital or economic status. A rapist is looking for the right location, the easiest victim. A rapist is looking to control and exert power over another. The best defenses against rape include being aware of your surroundings, being cautious, looking strong and confident, and implementing some common sense precautions into your daily living routines. No one can tell you what specific tactics to use to resist rape.
Every situation is different.
You must deal with the rapist as an individual. You must choose the best method. Do the best you can with what you have.
