A 2002 study found that only 5% of all sexual assaults are reported. SexualAssaultStatistics

  4. Sexual Assault is sexual intercourse or intrusion without consent. ASU calls this Non-Consensual Intercourse and includes vaginal, anal, and oral sex. • Sexual Violence does not necessitate sex. It can be an attempted, but incomplete act or other gender-based non-consensual act. This is Non-Consensual Contact and includes light touching, dating violence, etc... Sexual Assault & Violence…

A person can not give consent if they are… • Incapacitated – has no understanding of “who, what, when, where, why or how” • intoxicated • lack of mental or physical capacity • Unconscious or asleep • Forced – does not require resistance and includes threats, intimidation, and coercion • Silence does NOT give permission • Giving into pressure or intimidation is NOT consent Must have Consent - Permission

  7. What is your Sexual Assault IQ… TestYourKnowledge

  8. True or False When answering a confidential survey, almost 1/3 of college men said that they would rape, if they could be assured of not getting caught.

  9. True Culturally sexist attitudes, disrespectful attitudes

  10. True or False Sometimes women can cause rape by the way they dress and act.

  11. False No one asks or dresses to “be raped” Research suggests that up to 70% of rapes are planned in advance; therefore, the victim’s behavior or dress at the time of the incident is insignificant.

  12. True or False It is always better to get a ride from someone than walk alone at night, even if you don’t know the person well.

  13. False Ride with someone you know or take a taxi; Riding with the wrong person puts you at the risk of being taken miles away from the last place you were seen; Walking keeps you closer to people who know you, saw you last, and where you can get help.

  14. True or False Alcohol is rarely a factor in college acquaintance rapes.

  15. False 90% occur with at least one person under the influence

  16. Sexual Exploitationincludes invasion of sexual privacy, voyeurism (peeping Toms), non-consensual video or audio-taping, prostituting another, knowingly transmitting an STI or HIV to another individual, and going beyond the boundaries of consent. …SexualExploitation…

  19. GAs and student workers are both non-supervisory employees and students. As employees they are responsible for reporting violations which may put the victim or the campus community in further danger. Ask yourselves, “Is it likely to occur again?” and “Is there a fear of further harm?” GA’s and student workers must be cautious about their relationships with other students who may see them in positions of leadership or authority and may consider their actions as harassing. Employees must be very cautious about their relationships with students or subordinates. If the relationship ends badly, sexual harassment may be alleged. Relationships of Caution

  20. Define yourself and your sexual limits – be firm • Do not give mixed messages • Stay with a group/friends you trust - avoid secluded areas • Trust your gut feelings! • Practice self-defense • Challenge sexist attitudes that make rape acceptable • Be aware of controlling behavior in your relationships: • Intimidating stares • Degrading jokes or language • Refusal to accept “no” about anything • Insistence on making all of the “important” decisions • Extreme jealously, possessiveness • History of violent behavior Reduce Risk and Be Aware

  21. Health consequences one may experience after being traumatized: • Mental • Guilt • Vulnerability • Loss of Control • Embarrassment, shame • Anxiety, shaking, nightmares • Concern for the rapist • Anger • Post Traumatic Stress Disorder • Flashbacks • Rape trauma syndrome • Physical • STDs • Pregnancy • Bruises • Broken Bones • Bruising/damage internally • Feeling sick/throwing up • Headaches • Sleeping all the time or • Unable to fall asleep Signs – Help may be needed

  22. Listen and believe. Victims may feel scared, ashamed, angry, or depressed. Listen, believe and indicate you want to help. The healing process is slow. • Seek medical attention immediately. Go to the doctor or hospital. Put clothing in a paper bag, pillow case, or wrap in newspaper – NOT plastic. • Report to the university and police as appropriate. • Be the hero! Don’t go along with sexist, macho attitudes and teasing that promotes harassment and rape. Stand-up for yourself and others, and encourage respect. BeaHero – How to Help
