In 2014, a study was done looking at the effects of victims, offender and juror gender could impact decisions in child sexual assault cases (Quas, Bottoms, Haegerich & Nysse-Carris). This case study was done by having mock jurors read scenarios of a man or a woman defendant accused of molesting a 15-year-old boy or girl.

A recent study by One In Four USA found that one in four college women report surviving rape or attempted rape at some point in their lifetime, 673,000 women currently attending U.S. colleges and universities have experienced rape at some point in their lifetime, and every year in the United States, 1,270,000 women experience rape.

Some examples of sexual assault are “..forced sexual intercourse, forcible sodomy, child molestation, incest, fondling, and attempted rape.” Women that are hurt shouldn’t be made to feel weak and vulnerable.
