DIFFERENT TYPES OF SEXUAL VIOLENCE

Unwanted sexual acts, violence in the house, assault at the workplace, and whatnot. Sexual Violence rises every single second. Here are some different types of sexual violence you might want to know -




  • Sexual Harassment - which can be unwelcome verbal and physical sexual attention. One should feel comfortable in all the places whether it is your workplace or school. You can also report harassment to the authorities at your job, school, or local law enforcement.
  • Stalking -  is unwanted or repeated surveillance by an individual or group toward another person. Keep yourself aware of stalking behaviors to help you prevent them and take steps to protect yourself.   
  • Survivors of Child Sexual Abuse - once happened in childhood, it stays long with them. Many perpetrators of sexual abuse are in a position of trust or responsible for the child’s care, such as a family member, teacher, clergy member, or coach.
  • Using Technology to Hurt Others - cybercrime is on the top of the list which is increasing with each passing day. Some people use technology, such as digital photos, videos, apps, and social media, to engage in harassing, unsolicited, or non-consensual sexual interactions.
  • Sexual Abuse by Medical Professionals - When you go to the doctor, dentist, hospital, or physical therapist, or see other medical professionals, you trust them to treat you with respect as they care for your health but no, their intentions are something else.
  • Multiple-Perpetrator Sexual Assault - Multiple-perpetrator sexual assault, sometimes called gang rape, occurs when two or more perpetrators act together to sexually assault the same victim.
  • Elder Abuse - As the number of older adults in America increases, it will become all the more important to be aware of the warning signs of elder abuse.
  • Sexual Abuse of People with Disabilities - Consent is crucial when any person engages in sexual activity, but it plays an even bigger, and more complicated role when someone has a disability.
  • Prisoner Rape - If you’re an inmate, a former inmate, or know an inmate who survived sexual assault while in prison, there are resources available to you.
  • Legal Role of Consent - The legal definitions for terms like rape, sexual assault, and sexual abuse vary from state to state. Consent often plays an important role in determining whether an act is legally considered a crime.
