What You Wear Does Not Determine What Happens To You.

The phrase "she/he had it coming" will always hurt regardless of the context. Clothing does not result in sexual assault, it is the attacker. It does not matter if you walk in the nude, nobody ever has the right to violate you. You body is your temple, worship in whichever way you choose. In Middle Eastern nations with mandated burqa coverings for women, rape is still an everyday occurrence. So, wear what makes you happy, not what society tells you is "proper". Know that if something does happen to you, REPORT it immediately. Coming forward is the most courageous move you can make. If you need help doing so, visit http://www.rainn.org/ :)
