Sexual harsassment and rape
Apr 18, 2012

a very sensitive & delicate issue that often goes unnoticed. it can hapen to anyone, anywhere, anytime and has no age restriction. this month PSH (Partners in Sexual Health) are educating people about sexual harassment, sexual abuse and rape. how to identify it, prevent it and report it!
to be harassed or abused is NEVER the fault of the victim, everyone should be free to wear, go as they please and free to themselves without being perceivedv as promiscious or asking to be raped.
mostly it is woman and children who are victims of such crimes and are scared to report it or talk to someone.
it is a violation of rights... so stand up for your rights and educate yourself about sexual harassment coz it can happen to you too.

I think PSH should also emphasise on confidentiality of victims' identity, because some of these victims are afraid to report due to societal stigma. You are doing great job, keep it up.

It is probably the oldest crime second to murder.
Rapists generally have not felt and understood the love of family which is vital to understand humanity. Percussions mentioned are definitely necessary and also the confidentiality of victims which the majorities are helpless women and children but the most important that may reduce the intentions of rape is the love, that all of us may get familiar with, in the family life.

Sexual Harassment or Rape is never the fault of the victim, as you mentioned. However, they suffer the most. They loose confidence, self-esteem, their charm and what not! It is a trauma for them and we, as a society, need to support such victims to recover completely from this worst phase of their life.
