(21,043 posts)The reason I didn't realize it, is because I was on a date, and I didn't realize that on a date, being forced to have sex constitutes rape.
We went to see a movie, drove back to campus, he parked and out of the blue he grabbed me. No warning. He started unbuttoning my clothes, and I tried to get away. While he was busy unbuttoning (and I hitting him), I opened the door and almost fell out. Since now the door was open, and I was out, I grabbed my purse and took off. I didn't realize I could report him, should report him. To be sure, I didn't see him again and I told all my female friends at the dorm what had happened. Their reaction? Something like: "Oh man, what an ass." I should've reported him but didn't know that was cause for reporting him. I honestly didn't.
