A victim’s appearance or behaviors caused the assault.
TRUTH - Appearance or behaviors do not cause sexual assaults; perpetrators do.
If a person gets drunk, s/he is to blame for getting sexually assaulted.
TRUTH - No matter how much a person drinks, s/he does not deserve to be sexually assaulted.
If victims don’t resist, it means they wanted it to happen.
TRUTH - Many victims do not resist rape due to fear and shock.
Keep the focus on the perpetrator.
They’re responsible.
