  14. How to Prevent Sexual Assault • Trust your feelings • Don’t allow room for misinterpretation when you say “No” • keep control of your environment • Use the buddy system • Never force anyone to have sex, even if it seems like they are“leading” you on • “No” means “NO” • Speak up if you are getting a double message from someone • Don’t assume that you know what the other person wants

  15. REMEMBER: RAPE = CONTROL & POWER, NOT SEX!
