Gibbons says in the vast majority of sexual assaults, the victim and the assailant know each other. She says victims often don’t report the incidents to police because they’re afraid of criticism, or feel they caused the assault in some way.

In addition, it’s sometimes difficult to prosecute incidents of “date rape.”
In other words, whatever number the police have is not the whole story by a long shot.

I know of at least 3 of my friends who that's happened to at some point. Why no one locks their damn door is a mystery. If I was in my room my door was locked. If I'm not in my room, my door was locked. Unless I was having a party or something, I locked it out of habit. @kc, I was totally thinking the same thing.

He either thinks it is a wonderful present or doesn't even notice her until she starts screaming.<br /> <br /> I sort of wonder if a drunk dude ended up in the wrong dorm room and tried to climb into bed to find a woman there.
