Men can control their sexual urges. An assault is usually planned. Victims could or should have done something to prevent a sexual assault and they must have been 'asking for it' or they should have resisted. Victims are not to blame. Verbal threats or intimidation may cause the victim to submit.
Victims are often afraid of being killed or seriously injured.
The way women dress or behave can be the reason for the sexual assault. Appearance, social standing, age marital status or pregnancy are not deterrents for an attacker. Sexual assault happens only at the hands of a stranger in a dark alley at night. Most victims are attacked in their own homes. Many teen-age girls are sexually assaulted on dates.
