An overwhelming majority of sexual assaults happen to victims by individuals they know, with many sexual assaults occurring as the result of domestic violence. According to data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 51.1% of female victims have been raped by a partner or someone with whom they have had a romantic relationship.
If you are romantically involved with someone, you still have the right to choose how you share your body. If an intimate partner engages in sexual assault, harassment, or violence against you and you have not given your consent, they can still be held liable for an assault that has taken place.
