Men Can Stop Rape

Think About It |
When any form of sexual contact is against a person's will, it is against the law. |
Most sexual assaults are perpetrated by
someone the victim knows. |
| It is never okay to force yourself on another person. No one ever owes sexual payment or deserves sexual assault. If you have any doubts about what your partner wants, stop and ask. |
