If you get raped by a relative or family member, go to a safe place first. If you want to report the crime, notify the police immediately. Reporting the crime can help you regain a sense of personal power and control.Call a friend, or someone else you trust who can be with you and give you support.
Preserve all physical evidence of the assault. Do not shower, bathe, douche, eat, drink, wash your hands, or brush your teeth until after you have had a medical examination. Save all of the clothing you were wearing at the time of the assault. Place each item of clothing in a separate paper bag. Do not use plastic bags. Do not clean or disturb anything in the area where the assault occurred.
Get medical care as soon as possible. Go to a hospital emergency department or a specialized forensic clinic that provides treatment for sexual assault victims. Even if you think that you do not have any physical injuries, you should still have a medical examinationand discuss with a health care provider the risk of exposure to sexually transmitted infections and the possibility of pregnancy resulting from the sexual assault. Having a medical exam is also a way for you to preserve physical evidence of a sexual assault.
Write down as much as you can remember about the circumstances of the assault, including a description of the assailant.
Get information whenever you have questions or concerns. After a sexual assault, you have a lot of choices and decisions to make - e.g., about getting medical care, making a police report, and telling other people. You may have concerns about the impact of the assault and the reactions of friends and family members. You can get information by calling a rape crisis center, a hotline, or other victim assistance agencies.
Talk with a counselor who is trained to assist rape victims. Counseling can help you learn how to cope with the emotional and physical impacts of the assault. You can find a counselor by contacting a local rape crisis center, a hotline, a counseling service, other victim assistance agencies,etc.

Dangerous! A girl walk along at midnight

As many entertainment increases, more and more people like play at night, especially some girls. Girls walk alone at night is quite dangerous, but some of them can not realize how dangerous it is, so, this will cause many problems on girls. For example, a girl named Anna was walked at night about 1:00 am by herself when she finished her party. Then a man suddenly jumped out from a bosky boscage. He want to prick Anna’s eyes, then Anna protect her eyes, the man rapid rob Anna’s all bonds, mobiles, rings and run away. Luckily, Anna did not get hurt. Then police get this criminal, he said when they rob the bonds, they all prefer want to find the weakness people, for example, old people, girls, but general speaking, the old people will not go out at night, but many girls usually go home at midnight by themselves, so, they can rob them very easy.

4.      Positive phase, as sharply asked:” What are you doing?” scared him away with your own righteousness; if he do not escape, you can shout, attracting pedestrians. If he do not run , then you need to react immediately as you run.

Sexual harassments may happen anywhere! (2)


Prevention is always better than cure!


  • So, in this post, I am going to talk about how to prevent sexual harassments at home.
    Firstly,If you realize any sexual harassment when it is not too agressive, try to put an end to it. unless their words too sexually aggressive, or threatening. Girls, you have direct and make things clear. Make the person understand that you do not appreciate it if they're being offensive. Most the time they'll apologize and the situation will end there.


    If the situation continue to escalate, don't start being offensive because it may make things worse. That sensitivity can lead to a much more aggressive attack. Stop it in a calm demeanor and look mature. Do not get mad and lose control. It is because people respect you when you respect others at the same time. Don't let your emotions dictate the situation, otherwise it could result into worse behavior or possible actions.


    On the other hand, taking sexual harassment training courses. Girl can never assume this will not be a problem in their life. Just about every girl has probably been harassed to some degree before. Some actions just might be innocent, without indication of it becoming dangerous. However, it's good to understand how to handle these situations incase they go for the worse.


    For cases in which involves family members, girls may not dare to tell their friends or other family members. They may find social workers or hotlines to seek help and talk about ways to solve the problem.

    Sexual harassments may happen anywhere! (1)

    Nowadays, living in this metropolises in which people are facing stress from work in everyday life, for instance complaints from clients, requirements from bosses or employers, financial insecurity, etc, pushes people's attitude to an extreme edge that they would find ways and do anything to pursue success., However, during the process, moral values of modern people get distorted and a person's demeanor and behaviors become less important than how successful and great a person can be.Our common senses tell us that we cannot cheat in our examinations, cannot copy others assignments, cannot steal things in malls without paying, however, stress may lead to the psychological disorder and people becomes psychic and do things without knowing if it is right or wrong. Moreover, the consequences of what they did are ignored and put aside. Capitalist societies especially nurture people who aims and targets to pursue every single goal for their own sake.


    The imbalance in stress bought from work can lead to the man in the family to do something in extreme to balance his distorted mind. Although there are sometimes news reporting about men sexually harassing their children, however I believe that those cases that come to the light might only be one in a million among all cases. Many children do not know how to handle these situations , daughters do not dare to tell their mothers and of course impossible to talk to their fathers about that. Some may aware that the breaking of those news would bring down the reputation of her dad or the family. What if her dad's boss fire him because of it? What will their relatives think about their family if they know? And most important of all, what if nobody believes in her? If she need to find prove, she may have to undergo medical checks and the next step will lead to taking action to sue her own father. Many girls do not have the guts to stand out and speak for themselves. They do not know how to face their fathers which is their closest relative. Some cases, victims may be harassed by their brothers, uncles, cousins or even grandparents. These are also embarrassing cases that no even the juvenile, but mature people do not know how to handle.


    In my point of view, a few news reporting about these issues does not mean the problem in our society is not serious now. The government and social institutions should take more measures to avoid those tragedies from happening and teaching them ways to avoid it. Dear girls, in the next two articles, I will tell you more about how to prevent and what to do when you face sexual harassments from your family members.





    It takes only a minute to change a life...we definitely need to know how to protect ourselves!!

    Five Major Conditions

    Girls may be affected by a variety injuries that almost are included in the five major conditions that we summarized as follows:


    • Stranger-  showing personal information and talking to strangers is very dangerous as you do not know who is the person and whether he is reliable/believable or not.
    • Public transport-  people might get closer to other people, that could be easier for them to hurt you.
    • Night road- walking on a night road alone is quite easily to be attacked and hard to ask help as few people around you.
    • Public entertainment - it is always a chaotic place that might all kinds of people are in there.
    • Stepfather's sexual abuse- one of the most concern problem, that hurt girls not only on physically but also on mentally.
    According to these five major conditions, girls should understand such areas from which they need to be careful and take defensive measures against possible events.

    Four Approaches

    In this society, damage is everywhere and the harm girls suffered is one of the most concern in the world.
    There are four approaches that summarize various methods to help girls stay safe. First approach concerns about improving awareness of defense which help girls realize that they are in vulnerable groups as they might be hurt over fifty percent. The second approach refers to basic legal knowledge to protect themselves as a tool. Thirdly, appropriate demeanor and dress also significant as some bad guys probably argue that you tempts them with an unappropriate dress. Thus, that should be careful. The last approach that need to be mentioned concerns to learn at least one self defense for girls as it is a quite useful tool to protect themselves directly.
    As the four approaches above. They can help girls in a largely protected against the harm they might suffered.

    Tips for self defensing

    Here are some self defense tips to reduce the likelihood of date rape. Remember, the ability to reduce sexual assault does not mean you brought on the assault.
    1. When you date someone for the first time, meet during the day in a public place like a restaurant, a movie, or wherever there is a crowd. Do group activities like double dating or playing miniature golf. If the two of you are alone, have lunch, not dinner. That way, you’ll build in a time limit.
    2. Have your own transportation. Don’t depend on your date to get you home. It’s all too common for a woman to be driven to a secluded location and then assaulted. Also carry enough money for your own meals, tickets, and so on. Don’t ever depend on anyone financially. Many men still believe that any woman they spend money on owes them sexual favors.
    3. Don’t use drugs or alcohol. If you do drink, know your limits. When you drink, the first thing you lose is your judgment.


    4. If you’re at a party, never accept a ride from someone you’ve just met. Call a cab instead.


    5. Watch out for men who become violent or won’t take no for an answer, even in nonsexual situations.


    6. It’s a good idea to be clear with your date right from the start regarding your feelings about sex. Saying no is a lot easier at dinner than at your doorstep. Establish your expectations at the outset, what you will and won’t allow, when you are uncomfortable, and that “no” means NO. If you feel uncomfortable with your date’s responses or behaviors, clearly communicate those feelings.


    7. Don’t take communication for granted.


    8. If you invite your date in for a nightcap or coffee and he becomes aggressive, don’t hesitate to go to a friend’s or neighbor’s home to call the police.
    9. Don’t automatically trust everyone. Have a written set of guidelines for dealing with unwelcome sexual behavior that you can teach your children.




    10. Evaluate your own self-esteem. If it’s low, you might be attracting the wrong kinds of people. Low self-esteem leads many women to accept unacceptable behavior from a man. Some of the warning signs, which should NOT be ignored, include mood swings, fits of anger, inability to handle frustration, sexist jokes and behavior, overly controlling behavior, and lack of consideration for the feelings of you or others. Does your date insult you or demean you in front of friends? Does he pressure you for sex? Abuse alcohol or drugs? If you are attracting or tolerating these kinds of people, seek counseling.
