Date Rape Myths Socio
The first
myth is that rape often involves strangers when in
reality two out of every three rapes involve people
who know each other ( M a c i o n i s , 2 0 0 9 ) . Date or
acquaintance rape is what this type or rape is
commonly called. The second myth is that the victim
of rape did something to provoke the rape to occur
(Macionis, 2009).
