"Often and by a variety of means, children, adolescents, and adults--men and women alike--are pressured to have sexual relations that they do not want. Too commonly, the behavior of perpetrators, thoroughly interwoven into long-standing traditions and customs, is condoned. Meanwhile, the stigma that many victims face plunges them into a resigned silence that hinders them from getting help and masks the scope of the problem." (NETWORK FAMILY HEALTH INTERNATIONAL) The author examines how "nonconsensual sex may underlie some of the most tenacious and often life-threatening reproductive health problems of the time."
