There are many ways in which an aggressor might try to lead you into a dangerous situation
He might:

• Come on to you, in the hope of scoring or having sex, by flirting, complimenting you, touching you, and/or buying you drinks
• Attempt to kiss you or encourage you to go somewhere alone with him in order to be sexual
• Try to get you drunk or stoned
• Slip date-rape drugs into your drink to make you lose consciousness
• Coax, pressure or shame you into giving in to his sexual desires
• Physically use his body to hold you down while he forces unwanted sexual contact
• Ask to stay over at your place because he’s too drunk or stoned or tired to get home
• Try to exploit you or take advantage of you by insisting that you’ll go along with his sexual demands if you truly care for him
  

Expose you to pornography. For example, adult sex offenders who target children often try to make their behaviours seem acceptable first by showing their victims films that portray sex between children and adults as normal. The sex offender uses the pornography as a way to start sexual discussions or sexual contact.

In all situations, you must trust your own judgment to identify when you feel a boy or man is behaving in a threatening way.

Some guys are more sexually aggressive than others, and there are behaviours and signs you can look for to protect yourself. Avoid a guy who:

• Thinks that only his ideas and desires matter
• Doesn’t listen to you, talks over you, or ignores what you say
• Isn’t respectful of your thoughts, wishes or ideas
• Intensely focuses only on your body and your “attractiveness”
• Talks about girls and women in a derogatory or only in a sexualized way
• Drinks or takes drugs to excess
• Tries to make you feel guilty if you don’t give in to him
• Invades your personal space and gets sexual too quickly
