Previous history of physical or sexual victimization
Greater number of dating or sexual partners
Acceptance of rape myths*
Strong belief in traditional gender roles
Date-specific factors (eg, going somewhere to be alone, expenses paid by date)
Alcohol or drug use (promotes misinterpretation of behaviors and impairs ability for self-defense)
Pressure by date to use alcohol or drugs
Beverages spiked with "date rape" drugs (eg, flunitrazepam [Rohypnol], 3,4-methylendioxymethamphetamine [MDMA or ecstasy], ketamine, gamma hydroxybutyrate [GHB])
* Rape myths are prejudiced, stereotyped, or false beliefs about rape, rape victims, and rapists (eg, "Most rapists are strangers"; "Any healthy woman can resist a rapist if she really wants to").
