Think about the unthinkable. Don't mask the facts about rape with myths and stereotypes. Rape is an act of violence. It is an attempt to control and degrade using sex as a weapon. Rape can happen to anyone - children, students, wives, mothers, working women, grandmothers, the rich and poor, and boys and men.
Rapists commit their crime again and again, until they are caught.
Walk with confidence and purpose. Be aware of your surrounding - know who's out there and what's going on. Don't let alcohol or other drugs cloud your judgment. Trust your instincts. You're doors should be locked at all times, even when you're inside your home.
