Frequently Asked Questions about Date Rape

One out of every six adult women have experienced rape, and almost 80 percent of all reported rapes are acquaintance rapes, or rapes that happen between people who already know each other. Rape victims experience many different emotions including shame, confusion, mistrust, fear, and even guilt. It’s extremely important to know that rape is never the victim’s fault. The rapist is the one who has done something wrong, not the victim. This book makes these points absolutely clear while also presenting the straight facts on date rape and offering reassurance, comfort, and wise counsel on how to pick up the pieces, regain a sense of happiness and trust, and proceed with life after a sexual assault of this kind.
