Do you feel that a person who is sexually assaulted has an obligation to report the assault?

I believe it would be for the best, but there are often factors that undermine the reporting. Imagine if you're a 14 year old kid who was assaulted by a family friend. You tell your parents and they tell you that you're lying and punish you. How like do you think that kid is to report the assault?

Absolutely.

Yes, no questions. If it is clear sexual assault and you do nothing, you are giving them the green light to continue and possibly get even more bolder. This applies to both men and women, especially women who are inundated with toxic femininity (the belief that you should be protected at all costs at the direct and indirect expense of others).

Yes

I feel, that it is not as simple as that.

No. It's their choice if they want to report it. Sexual assault is a range of activities that range in seriousness. Sometimes it's comes down to grabbing a boob or a crotch, and other times it's rape. People that get grabbed might not feel it was serious or worth reporting, while someone that was raped might be too damaged to report it.

No.

Because many women put themselves in those positions. Or they weren't properly taught how not to conduct themselves like slvts. That's probably why many get discouraged in reporting. To top it off, it can be a sticky situation that can ruin their lives more. Like with Christine Blasey Ford.

Most victims just don't want to relive that moment. And you end up reliving that moment OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN, after it's reported. Not to mention, there's no guarantee the offender will be served justice for it. So why bother? Convicted sex offenders get less time than convicted kiddie porn offenders.

Yes. A crime is not a crime until it is reported. If you don't report the crime then nothing can be done to stop the perp. A victim of sexual assault has 2 responsibilities, reporting the crime to police and seeking help to overcome the assault if needed.

Not at all. It's a matter of personal choice. What I do believe is that there should be a statute of limitations of reporting these events. A year should be ample time.

legally no, but they might feel an ethical obligation to make sure the attacker doesn't do it to others.
