How to not get raped

I’m not suggesting that it is a woman’s fault if she gets rapes. But there are some sensible precautions we can all take:


1) Do not associate with strange men. It is common sense to assume that any man you don’t know could be a rapist. Do not be left alone with them. Do not visit their homes. What other reason could someone have for visiting another person’s home than sex? Do not lead Strange Men on by talking to them, looking at them, dancing with them, or hooking up with them.


2) Do not associate with men you know. Acquaintance rape is actually more common than stranger rape. Do not be left alone with male friends, relatives, and especially, boyfriends.


3) Do not walk alone at night. Do not take taxis either. Most taxis are driven by Strange Men who could be rapists. If you cannot find a woman to escort you, do not leave home after dark. This may be difficult during the winter months when it starts to get dark in the early afternoon but, really, you don’t want to risk getting raped do you?


4) Do not wear short skirts. You might think you’re wearing a pretty dress, but anything cut above the knee is actually an international sign that you are up for sex. With anyone, anytime, anywhere.


5) Do not look attractive. It is well know that women only exercise, diet, wear make-up and nice clothes, and brush their hair to make themselves sexually attractive to men. Ugly women do not get raped. Rape is what happens when a man is so overwhelmed by a woman’s allure that he cannot stop himself from violently assaulting her. It is a compliment, really!


6) Do not drink alcohol. It might sound like fun to go out with your friends and get drunk, but you leave yourself vulnerable to rape. If you must drink, treat all men who try to buy you a drink with suspicion. They could be rapists! Make sure you only get a little tipsy so that you retain the strength to fight off rapists.


If we can all just take some responsibility for our actions by following these rules, and think about what we are doing, we can protect ourselves.
