“One in five adult women and one in 100 adult men report
being raped. But that number jumps to two in five among women and one in five
among men who have experienced other forms of sexual violence, such as repeated
unwanted sexual contact and sexual coercion.” (http://psychcentral.com/news/2014/05/24/repeated-sexual-assault-victims-face-greater-psychological-consequences/70331.html)
But exactly who is forcing these sexual acts? With 60% of
rape already going unreported, 97% of those assaulters never endure
consequences or experience legal charges. (Rainn, 2009)
Family members are even oblivious to the fact that rape has become a leading
cause of psychological problems. Even more so, the authenticity, that
maltreatment is engaged within 1 mile of the home. (Rainn, 2009) Survivors
and treatments have been analyzed for further validations on specific
psychological factors, including self-esteem issues, aggression, mood swings,
and depression. Researchers believe that these examinations lead to potential
redemption for sufferers. Ensuing to well-balanced lifestyles, victims are able
to disclose personal stories, creating insight to guardians and families.
Investigators at the University of Missouri presume, that with further analysis
and publication, loved ones, relatives, and school facility, can generate
enough communication to reach worldwide, the significance of rape and its
persisting rise across the nation. (Wood, 2014)
