I have to agree with Maisun Se. The majority of rapes occur by an acquintance of yours; it can also be a "date rape", meaning that sexual intercourse is been coerced by a guy you're out with.

ppl, rape doesn't involve beauty or provocative behaviors as a motive. any woman is potentially a victim of rape. why? because it's all about power over the victim, control and severe psychopathology of the offender. it's about the thrill of inflicting pain onto other human beings and sadistically enjoy their despair.it's about incapacity to form a sexual relationship in any other way. it's about questioning one's own manhood and masculinity, it's about revenge for anything "bad women" have done to the "poor" offender.

so, we must be informed about rape and learn how to protect ourselves. the more we know, the less we put ourselves into danger.

and guys...when a lady wears a nice dress (which may be as well sexy) and goes to a club to have fun, doesn't mean that SHE'S ASKING FOR IT!! get over these myths and stereotypical attitudes already!!!!!

The more preferred terms for bodyguard are “Close Protection Operative” and “Executive Protection Specialist”. The service an executive/close protection operative provides is beyond mere “bodyguard” protective services.

Many request for protect are from attorneys for clients as a result of threats, abusive letters and phone calls. Also women who wish to avoid the risk of being taken advantage of; I provide protection to clients and their families while out in public at airports, hotels, court appearances, clubs, business meetings and amusement parks. I also provide protection during social special occasions such as weddings, funerals and private homes.
I provide security driver and security escort service for clients who want to enjoy a night out and enjoy themselves while attending public functions or private affairs, all without the inconvenience of having to drive themselves, worry about parking or being noticed unescorted and risk being attacked or taken advantage of. These details involve assuming a relaxed appearance, allowing my client to conduct business or social activities without a feeling of being restrained. My client can move freely in any environment, knowing that I am watching him/ her and will react if necessary. I pay attention to people’s eyes and facial expressions as they get near my client. I watch their hands and body movements as they approach. I scan everything and everyone quickly without being obvious, and I will react if necessary.

Should anyone need help getting away...Please don't hesitate to contact me. You may read more about me and the services that I provide at: www.myspace.com/chocolate_prince

the instant reaction is some kind of variation on rage, against the abuser, and pity for the abused. this is the first reaction. Things like this should never happen. EVER. These poor women... what can be done? I have a question to propose. And it's maybe a hard one. Maybe a very hard one. the woman, she has been violated. she has been treated in a way that no human being ever should be treated. EVER. now she is removed from immediate danger. and all women ought to be. nobody deserved to be beaten like that, and be treated that way. but she is safe now. at least, that is what should happen. get the women out of danger immediately. yet here is a quastion... what do we do with the abuser? help the woman. heal her. but then, what happens to the abuser? what do we do with him? clearly what they are doind, the abuser, needs to be stopped. NOW. but how? What is the most humane way to make this stop? I started writing thinking thast I would say that the abuser deserves our love and forgiveness aswell. and perhaps this is true. and I think that I could. but first, there would have to be a cessassion. he would have to STOP. and repent, and never do it again, and resolve to change his life forever. I still believe that. It may sound overly merciful for some. and maybe it is. I cannot be the one to say, definitvely. God is merciful, and also, He is Just. If the sinner repents and ammends his life, he will be forgiven. the question is.... how do you gte him there? how do you get him to that point? He will have to pay for what he has done. just like I will, and just like you will, and just like everyone else will. we will all be brought to an account for ourselves and our lives, how we lived them, what we did, what we said, what we did not do, what we did not say. for better and for worse. God says that if you are a person who generally and genuinely tries to do good, and follow your conscience, then it will go well with you an you will be judged fairly, even if you do not believe in Chirst. Yet to know Christ, is to recognize that this is all what He is about. Do good. be good. think good. (as the Zoroasteranists say.) if this has been your practice, you should be fine.
but then what about the one who hasn't? God says to saint Faustina that if a sinner has regert for his sin, then it is enough for Him to go into that soul and try to save him. but it is not a free for all. the sinner must cooperate and make EVERY effort to change and to grow. he must repent. he must come clean with all he has done, and he must resolve to change. he will be forgiven, but will still be accountable until he has paid the last penny and drunk the last drop. God says, there is more joy in heaven over one man who repents than there is over one thousand jsut men, because it is like the prodigal son, where the son was lost, and presumed dead, and was thought never to return again... and then he came home again. and his father threw a big partyBlessed be God. He is both Just and merciful.
still, the victim ought to recieve a reccompense for her suffering, and I pray that she will. I believe that she will. God loves the victims, too. He says to help the oppressed, and to seek justice.
it is such an atrocity that htese things ae still happenign in the world. it is to our great discredit. I pray that we will find a way to end it and stop it and make it go away. ther needs to be a punishment. but it is for God to decide. yet, he must be stopped, must he not, the purpotrator?
I"m going to stop thinking about this. it's all I have to say for now. I am sorry if I have offended anyone. but I still do believe that if there is regret and a desire to change, then there is also a demand for forgiveness. the problem is when the regret or remorse or resolution is inauthentic. there is no forgiveness if the is no remorse. there is no forgiveness if there is no true roselve. and I mean TRUE. like shaking on the floor crying over yourself and over all that you have done, tormented by the thought of your actions, wishing and hoping that you could die for what you have done. and yet, if I demand it of another, I must demand it of myself. If, and better yet, where I have done wrong, let me also be corrected, and let there be a change. let my penance be real and true and genuine. let me be recollected and aware of myself. and let my God forgive me, for I kow that I have wronged. Let me be sorry. and let me resolve to change. Let me bear with the fruit of repentence. let me be transfoormed, and give a good product to feed those who need the very same gift which has been given me>>> mercy. forgiveness. love. ther is a story about a man who had a debt. it was too great for him to pay, and he wouldn't have been thrown into prison. he pleaded with the debtee, saying, "I have no money, never could I repay you this debt. please do not thorn me into prison." and the lender took pity on him and forgave him his debt. but when the man who was forgiven went out again, he did not rememebr what this man had done for him. those to who has borrowed from this forgiven man, wer called in to see the man, and he called them up on theri debts, and resolved to throw them into prison. when the great man who had forgiven this borrower heard of this, he was angry, because even as he was shwon mercy, he also should have shown mercy. if then I have been forgiven, and am being forgiven for what I do and have done, I also ought to bear the fruit and give it to those who are in need of it.

and if I go to the abuser rather than the abused, it is not my intention to say that he deserves my mercy more than the abused. yet God says to SAint Faustina, the greater the sinner the greater his right to my mercy. still, these poor women. this is intolerable. this is sinful and wrong, and outrageous. it shoud never be aloud, and... should there be a strict punishemnt for them? what will bring it about that they will be sorry and not reoffend? what will make it so that things are okay again? what makes it right. what does justice demand of us? and where does mercy come in? that's all I have to say in this. Peace be with you.

hello,
well i m sorry but i just had to reply to this post...
why is it if its a crime tht recognosed we dont question what needs to be done or how justice is to be.. we just simply say the law should punish them and whne it is coming to a crime so horrid as this ppl can even start to think abt mercy and all. i m ot against mercy.. but i am against taking this one case and saying we should show mercy fif the person repents.. for if we allow this softness of justice here it will be and can be used everywhere.. a murderer why does he not deserve the same mercy then.. why is it irrespective of the reasons that drove him there( and trust me most times a murdere wil have better motive than someone abusing a woman) he is tried and given whtever punishment the court and justice seems is right.. no one questions that yet here we are questioning what to do with the abuser.. a justice system which takes women abuse of eery sort seriously and actually works fully is what is needed.
all for now.. sorry if i might not agree with some ppl on this one.

So raping women, kidnapping them, treating them as if they are less than human..... that is a mistake? That is not a mistake, it is disgusting, and whoever does it needs to be punished, just like anyone else who commits any other crime.

Calling the traffing of women and girls a mistake is ignorant. Perhaps you should put yourself in the trafficked person's shoes, and see if it is a mistake then.

I agree...... of course, survivors will be very angry, and maybe they wish for the death of their torturer. But it is wrong..... lock him/her away forever, but give him the chance to regret what he did. It is not our job to decide about life or death, that can and may only decide God.

Take it easy with the knee-jerk condemntaions guys. Now, I'm not condoning abusing women by any means, but - what if the abuser is the way he is because he needs help? And by "he needs help" I don't mean the "that dude's crazy" form of it. We need to quit with that kind of thing because it fuels the cycle of condemnation, self-hate, and then self-defense against the condemners. It backfires and just pisses people off more. You can't make a sinner turn from his ways by spitting "you belong in hell you *bleep* of a *bleepity* *bleep*" in his face. It works the same way regardless of whether the sin's drunkenness, swearing, drug abuse or sexual abuse. GRACE. I was a sexual abuser, and according to a lot of you guys it seems that I should be locked away in a cage somewhere with no love, no help, and getting butt-raped everyday. Nonetheless, I never followed someone home or peeped from the bushes or any crud like that, but I was tyranical at school, oppressive and cruel - shouting insults and trying to pressure the girl into caving and loving me. And I didn't want to do any of it. Call it an excuse, but I NEEDED help. I found out that I'm badly mentally ill - bipolar, among other things. I found Christ and got the help I needed. I take my meds and stay normal. Sad but true. But by accidentally forgetting the human complexity of these abusers you reduce them to machines and not real people like you, who have ways of feeling, thinking and their own personalities. God can (and does) forgive and change these individuals.

I support this cause and will probably donate as well. But remember both the victim and the perp are humans. And in my case, it was a mistake. Try having self-control when you're having moods swings and delusions and obsessive thoughts and they are all caused by some genetic illness, not because you picked them one day and said "I'd like to be that way, please."

And after all, forgiveness is only necessary because there are perpetrators.
If we don't forgive perps, then what the heck is forgiveness good for? Are we going to forgive the victims? Doesn't make sense.

I agree to a point with what you are trying to say but I think it is more about the people that make money from this abuse such as traffickers, pimps and the advertisers of sex for money in the press that need to be stopped. If it was not for the huge financial gains then most of this vile trade and abuse in women and children would not happen on the scale it does now.
I applaud your honesty and hope you have changed forever. I do not believe as you and many others do in a God as I am not sure, but I do try to be a decent human being and fight for those who cannot for whatever reason.

Thank you.

The whole sex trafficking thing, and prostitution really irk my nerves. For different reasons maybe, I don't know. I think that sex is romantic, and to seek some form of "liberation" by making yourself a sex object just subjects you even more to use and abuse. You've got old men getting all lusty over some woman selling her virginity and going on TV about it. And on top of all that, the media wants women like that - heck, even Axe commercials piss me off. Beauty, romance, affection - not sexy, lusting, hot sex. Sex abuse is fed by this degredation imho. Women are ceasing to be another person to befriend and bond with and are just becoming a "thing" to grope, fondle and screw.

Not saying I'm a prude in any way though - these things just belong in love. But, hey, I advocate sensuality, just in a romantic way. ♥

Very strong feelings are aroused by this topic - how could they not be? I guess those who know me know what I am going to suggest as an approach to the strong feelings we encounter - I'm going to suggest the groundbreaking book Wanterfall, which is free until after Christmas (at least) at http://www.wanterfall.com Will it help stop sexual abuse against women? (Or children, or men?) You don't know... yet. Just try one page - then tell me what to do with it! I'll be listening... Anyway, what have you got to lose? It's free.

Anthony Ray Hernandez thanks for ure honesty..
but unlike the others in this group i d like to make a diff stance...
once again we are not talking abt people who do or amke decisions based on mental instabilities.. we are talking about those who dpo the act in full conciousness... again i will bring the example of murder here....
when we arrest someone of murder we dotn just say hey lets just forgive him and give him another chance.. we try him.. if we see tht at the moment of the crime his mental state was not normal.. we find help for him ... but if it is proven that he committed the crime in cold blood or with full consious knowledge we punish him...
i just dont see why sexual abuse should be any different.. i m not saying sentence the person to death for i fully agree we dont have the right to take a life... but give the person the sentence thts deserving and not mercy.. for otherwise.. the whole law system is not required.... we can alway say lets turn to god and ask forgiveness and hope ppl will be better.. but thts not the case and thtw why we have laws... lets atke it to an even smaller level.. stealing.. if one is caught they are still fined and trialed .... and i would say we all agree that sexual abuse is a larger crime than stealing.

now coming to the point of adds promoting sex and all yeah it sux... but again how many more men out there bought axe after tht add.. and also we talk abt prostitution being bad yet lets face it most guys love and think watching pornography is fine... where is the difference... just like pornography if it a free choice the person has amde after ebing an adult i dont see why she should not be allowed prostituion as a career... not taking ethics or religion into account here....
