True or False. Rape is motivated by sexual desire. Rape is an act of violence, not sexual passion. It is an attempt to hurt and humiliate, using sex as the weapon. Rapes can happen in these situations, but approximately one-third of all victims are attacked in their homes and in over half the reported rapes, women know their attackers.
Women invite rape by dressing seductively.
Victims do not cause rape. In fact, police believe that in the stranger-rape situation, rapists tend to prey on women who look frightened, easily intimidate, or seem to be daydreaming. In other words, rape victims often are in the wrong place at the wrong time. The majority of rapists continue until caught. And rape is one of the most under reported crimes.
