Their first thought is, “illegal”, “whore”, “is he/she being forced?”,…

The documentary we watched illustrated the difference between unwelcome and involuntary actions in the sense of sexual harassment. Many of the women tell their stories where they became active participants in some sexual encounters but it was mostly out of fear of violence as well as losing their job or being deported.

Teaching a child the tell-tell signs of inappropriate sexual misconduct that can be inflicted upon them is very crucial, and should be considered the same…

Even with these statistics, rape is a violent act that is under-reported more and more each year.
