Dating is supposed to be a fun and exciting chance to get to know other people and explore the possibilities of romance with them. It is also a great opportunity to go out, enjoy new experiences, learn new things and create delightful memories. Unfortunately, there are some people who take advantage of dating situations.

Most women are very trusting and they tend to extend a certain degree of trust to their dates. Sadly, this trust can also lead to an unsafe situation. Some unscrupulous individuals use this trust as an opportunity to impose their carnal desires upon the unfortunate victim. The number of date rape cases increases every year and statistics show that women between 16 to 24 years old are four times more prone to date rape than women belonging to other age groups.

To avoid date rape, there are some things a woman can do when going out on a date. Limiting alcoholic beverages intake is a great way to keep a clear perception of things and avoid being taken advantage of. Drinking alcoholic beverages during date is fine as long as the drink is taken in moderation. Ninety percent of date rape cases happen when the victim is drunk, since they are at their weakest during a drunken stupor and thus they won’t be able to fight back and protect themselves against individuals who are violating their rights.
