HOW OFTEN DOES IT HAPPEN? ————-««

Anyone can be a victim of sexual assault, though women, children and some demographic groups are more frequently victimized than others. The prevalence of sexual assault goes far beyond the cases that make it to the courtroom or the evening news. Sexual assault impacts hundreds of thousands of people each year in the United States from all ages, genders, races, ethnicities, and backgrounds. However, low reporting rates and varying research designs make it difficult to find one set of statistics that tells the whole story.

Most Victims Know Their Attacker (Acquaintance Rape) . About 85 to 90 percent of sexual assaults reported by college women are perpetrated by someone known to the victim; about half occur on a date. The most common locations are the man's or woman's home in the context of a party or a date.

As rape and sexual assault victims grapple with life post-trauma, one of the loaded questions that is sometimes asked is, “What were you wearing?”

In my country, the Philippines, 14.5 percent of girls age 13-17 have experienced sexual violence, according to the 2015 National Baseline Study on Violence against Children. Violence against women and children leaves a profound impact on the health, dignity, security and autonomy of individuals. It leaves deep psychological scars that can take years to overcome. Yet it remains shrouded in a culture of silence.

— the exhibit shows clothing as innocent as the victims themselves.
— the exhibit shows that even innocent children can also be a victim
— the exhibit shows that ITS NOT THE WAY WE DRESS, BUT ITS BECAUSE OF A PERSON’S LACK OF SELF-CONTROL

I am here to say that...

Clothing is no way the reason for sexual assault.

"We will not change the way we dress because it's more convenient for your lack of self control."

"But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart"
