Character Traits VS. Sexual Assault
Who are batterers?
According to the Center for the Prevention of Sexual and Domestic Violence, “Just as with battered women, men who batter fall into no specific categories. They also come from all class backgrounds, races, religions, and walks of life. They may be unemployed or highly paid professionals. The batterer may be a good provider, a sober and upstanding member of the community, and a respected member of his congregation.”
Who are the victims?
Victims can be of any age, sex, race, culture, religion, education, employment or marital status. No one has the right to invade a person’s space and no one deserves to be raped. No one deserves to be abused: it doesn’t matter who you are, where you come from, what color you are, your age, whether you are poor or rich, whether you are on drugs or not. And it doesn’t matter if you danced the night away provocatively in front of a crowded room; a person deserves respect and a person deserves to be left alone.
