When you want answers, being told that all the advice you have heard has its limitations, is not reassuring. Yet the only honest response to questions about handling an attack is that only you can assess the situation and only you can determine the appropriate response for yourself in a particular situation. 

 On matters of prevention, however, it is possible to give specific suggestions. Most sexual assaults are planned in advance, although the offender may not have selected a specific victim.  By being aware of precautions you can take, you may lessen the opportunity of assault.  Being aware is your best defense.!
