Through a Rapist's Eyes

A group of rapists and date rapists in prison were interviewed on what they look for in a potential victim and here are some interesting facts:

1) The first thing men look for in a potential victim is hairstyle. They are most likely to go after a woman with a ponytail, bun, braid or other hairstyle that can easily be grabbed. They are also likely to go after a woman with long hair. Women with short hair are not common targets.


2) The second thing men look for is clothing. They will look for women who's clothing is easy to remove quickly. Many of them carry scissors around to cut clothing.

3) They also look for women on their cell phone, searching through their purse or doing other activities while walking because they are off guard and can be easily overpowered.


4) The time of day men are most likely to attack and rape a woman is in the early morning, between 5 and 8:30 a.m.



5) The number one place women are abducted from/attacked at is grocery store parking lots. Number two is office parking lots/garages. Number three is public restrooms.


6) The thing about these men is that they are looking to grab a woman and quickly move her to a second location where they don't have to worry about getting caught.


7) Only 2% said they carried weapons because rape carries a 3-5 year sentence but rape with a weapon is 15-20 years.


8) If you put up any kind of a fight at all, they get discouraged because it only takes a minute or two for them to realize that you isn't worth it because it will be time-consuming.

That was really interesting and useful. Nobody should feel stupid to be paranoid about that because its a serious issue. I think digging a finger as hard as u could into a guys eye would fuck them up good and hopefully they would go blind becuase of it :finger: . I know a few girls that were raped and its not something anyone can get over easily

Well its good info to know, all females should know what to expect, but, all the guys who were interviewed probably didnt give good ways to do it, cause there all in JAIL??? So if anyone wants to use these ways, People will catch you, and guess what bubba is waiting for you.
