It is important to realize that not every victim of rape has signs of physical abuse. Just because her clothes are not torn, or her bones are not broken, doesn't mean that she didn't resist or that she wasn't raped. The threat of force is, in many cases, just as intimidating as actual violence for the victim. The rapist has used fear to get control of her. Rape is an act of choice to commit a crime, to forcibly obtain power over another individual through the means of sexual assault.
The difference between stranger rape and date/acquaintance rape is the relationship between the victim and the rapist. The fact that she supposedly knows the rapist may make it more difficult to identify him as dangerous. Even more, knowing him can also dilute a female's normal self-defense response to her attacker and cause her to hesitate in reporting the crime and seeking help for herself.
REALITY CHECK:
AFTER YOU SAY, "NO," IT IS RAPE.
REALITY CHECK:
ALL RAPISTS ARE SERIAL RAPIST - THEY RAPE UNTIL THEY ARE STOPPED, AVERAGING FOUR TO FIVE RAPES. THEY RARELY GET HELP THEMSELVES, i.e., THEY DON'T STOP UNTIL THEY'RE STOPPED.
REALITY CHECK:
RAPE IS NOT JUST A MISUNDERSTANDING. RAPE IS A CRIMINAL ACT OF CHOOSING TO OVERPOWER A FEMALE AND IMPOSE SEXUAL INTERCOURSE ON HER WITHOUT HER CONSENT OR WITHOUT HER KNOWLEDGE.
