I feel like the media romanticized sexual assault. For example, pinning against the wall and kissing them. Everyone thought that was cute in the early 2000s.
it's only okay if there's consent, but the way the media portrays it as I.E doing such without asking or even abruptly kissing someone without their consent is so messed up
@@amazeorg Definitely! Years ago, I was assaulted by someone who was so much stronger than me and I couldnt fight back. I was so scarred and it has effected me so much. He kissed me by the way, and it was such a long time ago, but no matter how young you or the other is, it can still scar them so much. this happened when I was in first grade and I am still hurting from it. Be careful what you do. I'm glad you guys have addressed the problem
@@elainebleazard7279 i’m so sorry u had to go thru that, u didn’t deserve it and no one does :(( ur loved, thanks for being brave and sharing ur experiences
Unwanted flirting is also a form of sexual harassment. I know from personal experience in middle school. I told him to stop multiple times and he didn't listen to me. I told my parents, thinking that they would help me. But instead they were MAD at me. They said he was just trying to be "nice." A few weeks later I had to tell my vice principal, and luckily he was able to handle it. He told the boy to stop talking to me that way, and he did. The vice principal emailed my parents who then listened to me. Just know that when you say no, it means no. Don't ever let anyone treat you in such a manner.

It would be sexual assault if the person kissed you on the mouth even knowing you don't want it? There was a time when an old friend started touching me and in the end kissed me on the lips even that I said no. Sorry stupid question
Hey Rk, this is not a stupid question! Any kind of sexual behaviors or touching another person’s breasts, genitals or buttocks WITHOUT that person’s permission (also known as consent) is sexual assault. I'm so sorry this happened to you. Just know that it wasn't your fault and that this person was a terrible friend to you. It sounds like this friendship has ended, but if it hasn't, we encourage you to talk to an adult you trust. You deserve support!
@@amazeorg thank you very much. I wasn't sure if it was assault and didn't wanted to tell everyone a lie (if it wasn't). And no, I'm not talking to him anymore ;)
This happened to me at a friend's birthday party and a person suddenly came up and kissed me on the mouth, they then pretended nothing happened and I didn't really process what happened or remember what happened until recently. I got a flashback and I wanted to know if it counted too.
Since i keep seeing people talking about their stories i thought i'd do the same since i know there's no where else for me to say this but, a relative has been making me feel uncomfortable for about 3 years now and i just dont know how to feel or what to do, they keep telling me to do stuff im uncomfortable with but they just laugh and keep holding me in place forcefully and it takes around a few minutes of constantly saying no to get them off of me. I dont know how much longer this will go on and im scared. My parents would kill me or not believe me so its no use telling them. Thank you for coming to my rant.
I am so sorry this is happening to you. This is not okay. It is not your fault, and you have done nothing wrong. We want to make sure you get some help.

This had me thinking about that old show Pucca, I started watching it ever since my friend suggested me watching it. So i watched the reboot one on netflix and the old one on youtube. It didnt click at first that whenever Pucca kisses Garu without his consent that it would be this, and when it did I couldnt look at the show the same anymore😔I kinda wish i never really thought about it in this kind of light to be honest,,
I just looked this up because I wanted to know if that girl in school constantly touching me like that was something normal people do. Turns out it isn't and I have a lot of stuff to reflect on.
Malena Acevedo I agree! I live in Poland (I'm half Us half Polish.) and in my opinion our president is a total jerk... anyway, he was like "Children don't want to learn about sex, how people are born, sexual harrasing and so on! We don't need that kind of education!" He almost took down the school subject focusing on these type of things! If anyone was wondering, yes in Polish schools there is a whole subject on that and I'm personally glad there is. I think its very important to learn about this. And I'm also glad that there is a youtube channel focused on that topic, that way its available for everyone and we can all learn!
Kids, there's nothing more cool than being hugged by someone you like, but if someone tries to touch you in a place or in a way that makes you feel uncomfortable, that's NO GOOD! It's your body! No one has the right to touch you if you don't want them to! So what do you do? First, you say no, then you get outta there! Most important, you gotta tell someone you trust, like your parents, your teacher or a police officer
I have seen multiple videos about sexual assault. And one thing stood out to me: There is a too strong emphasis on the specific places a person has to touch you, for you to be sexual assaulted. It is always: breasts, inner thigh, genitals or butt. Every place you don't want to be touched is wrong! If it feels sexual and wrong, then it is wrong. I can't stretch that enough.
Wait so if some one touched me near my genitals say it's to make sure my kidney is in place would that be considered sexual assault? Please answer me fast
I'm an aromantic asexual and even just a simple flirt makes me very uncomfortable. Thankfully, I've never expirienced this but I still have to be wary.
Yikes. I remember one time I was on visitation with my Dad. I was 12 at the time. (a couple years ago) My Grandfather's girlfriend was sitting in the car with me alone at the time. My Dad and Grandfather were getting something in the house. Anyway, she slowly touched my inner thighs and touched my hair and nails. She kept on asking me REPEATEDLY to talk to her and use my phone. I felt really uncomfortable and just ignored her. Pretty soon I got tired of her doing that to me, so I got out of the car and called the police. They came very quick and then took me back home. I felt so dirty. We had to deal with court and everything. Thank God I don't have to see my Dad anymore. The whole visitation thing was messed up.
We are so sorry that you had that awful experience. We're proud of you for having the courage to call for help. You sharing your story may help someone else as well!

Ye I was in the same situation. I moved schools and I’m ok now but I’m still very uncomfortable with males and all my male friends kind of make me uncomfortable because I tried to talk abt my sexual assault today and he said “sexual assault is kinky”. Another one of my friends said “haha funny” it rlly hurts to hear them say that but they aren’t rlly educated so i forgive them :/
When someone tells you a dirty joke and you didn’t want to be told that and you told them that you are uncomfortable about that and said no, but they told you anyways, is that sexual harassment?
Great question! If someone is saying sexual things to you against your will, even if they're jokes, that can be a type of sexual harassment. If you're feeling extra concerned about it, you might want to let a trusted adult know so that they might be able to help you address it.
What if at the moment the partner said yes and later he/she was not happy with the sex? Then he/she accused the other for sexual assault and there was not evidence that included the verbal consent. What should the accused person do?
Thanks for writing to us with your important question. There is a big difference between a person not enjoying sexual touching with a partner and someone being sexually assaulted. If a person is legally accused of sexual assault, they would want to consult with a lawyer to help with any legal charges that might have been brought against them. The courts can appoint one if the person doesn't have the resources or familiarity with a lawyer they could use. It would be important to get help from professionals to figure out what the best path forward is.
It’s not right that this happened to you, and it is not your fault. No one should touch you in a sexual way. This includes family members, other adults and other kids. Don’t keep this a secret. Find someone you trust, like a parent, family member, teacher, coach, a friend’s parent or neighbor, and tell them what happened. There are people out there who can help. If the first adult you tell doesn’t believe you or doesn’t do anything to help protect you, keep telling other trusted adults until you get help.
Someone harassed me sexually and I curbed the thing for a whole year until I told my family about it and I did not take my right from it because we were in another city

I am so sorry this happened. Sexual assault is not your fault, and you deserve to be safe. Please talk to your parent or another adult you trust, so they know what is going on and can help you. If the first person you tell doesn’t do anything, tell someone else, like another relative, teacher or neighbor that you trust. Keep telling adults until you get help. You can also call the National Sexual Assault Hotline at 1(800) 656-HOPE (4673).
I know im a bit late, but has anyone been in this situation/have advice for this? One guy in my class has been harassing me for weeks now, repeatedly asking me dirty questions and touching me. I’m not sure if this counts as sexual assault because he’s only touched my leg. Also- if it does count, how should i address this with my teachers and parents? Everytime i want to talk about it i feel embarrassed, i’m not supposed to know what words like “sex” or “genitals” mean since im fairly young.
I'm so sorry this is happening to you! Its not your fault and you should absolutely tell an adult that you trust. Start first with your parents and they should be able to guide you on next steps to help you and get this person to stop. If they can't help, keep telling adults until someone believes you.
@@amazeorg thank you! just today ive gotten up the courage to tell someone, now both my parents and teachers know. the guy’s also getting an F on conduct. feels like a rock off my shoulders
I work as a hostess and communicate with servers. One of the servers is the flirty type. He does unwelcoming gestures like a hug and an attempt to kiss me on the cheek. He will also put his finger in my pocket. He also laid his hand on my a**. All of these things were unwelcomed and I have a boyfriend. I don’t know how to tell my boyfriend, he’s going to get upset that I never reported it. But I want to tell him. I was harassed before at a party and he said I should have slapped the guy but what can you do in the moment when you don’t want to make a scene? I would feel guilty to report him bc I would feel like I’m overreacting. I never make my boundaries clear because I don’t want work tension but I’m uncomfortable with it. I need real advice!!
Thank you for sharing. I'm so sorry that you're experiencing this. Often people may experience sexual assault and not realize that's what they've experienced simply because they haven't discussed with anyone else. That's why it's very important that if you do feel concerned about an experience you've had you reach out to someone you trust. Don't be afraid to reach out now! Since it is happening at work and can be overwhelming to worry about the consequences of telling someone. BUT, you need to. It's not your fault and if your boyfriend doesn't believe you, keep telling an adult until someone does.
There's my uncle whome I really trusted. He always looked such a gentleman and with manners . He used and still gives me sweets , chocolates , and snacks. He used to and still talk about my body a lot while staring at my genitals and private parts. He used to touch my private areas and as I was kid , I thought it was normal. So , is it sexual harrasment or sexual assault?
I am so sorry this is happening to you. This is not okay. It is not your fault, and you have done nothing wrong. We want to make sure you get some help.

Is it sexual assault that my mom's male friend kissed me on my head for an amount of times when he was comforting me after I had a little argument with my mom? I think he knows I don't like intimate actions such as "friendly" kissing.
I know I am late to this video, but I just wanted to say, I was 9 when my “friend” who was 10 years old told me to play a game with her, I was really naive back then and did not understand anything, I was also afraid to say no due to a trauma I had in the past, she told me to show her my private part, I didn’t want to but she insisted that it was just a game and that I had to do it because those were the rules, I was to afraid to just say no as I said before, she started touching me, I didn’t know what to do so I just stayed there like a statue not knowing what to do, after that time I never wanted to see her again, but she continued talking to me, and when she invited me to sleepovers I couldnt say no because my mom would ask if we fought or what happened, and I was afraid to tell the truth and didn’t know what to do, I was scared.... I moved schools a year later so I don’t talk to her anymore, I blocked her on everything. And if I ever saw her somewhere I would always avoid her and never talk to her, I would run the opposite direction. I am 12 now but I cannot not stop thinking and feeling disgusted and bad about myself, I kinda hate myself for it and for being naive and not knowing nor understanding what was happening back then and that it was bad, now I understand and I really hate this feeling when I remember those times. But it was all my fault for being so dumb and stupid.
I am so sorry this is happening to you. This is not okay. It is not your fault, and you have done nothing wrong. We want to make sure you get some help.

hi, something very similar happened to me when I was 9 years old too. The girl who did that to me was also 9 years old. Im sorry this happened to you too.
im sorry if it's a dumb question but is it sexual harassment or smth when you agreed to something prior, but then felt uncomfortable in the moment and you start backing out but the guy refuses or he starts complaining becuase you gave consent prior. im not sure if this makes sense, but consent means you are 100% okay with it, so if you suddenly feel uncomfortable is it non-consexual or not? I'm sorry it it doesnt make sense lmao
@@aerozin okay thank you so much! This kinda happened to me before and he was sulking and saying that i alr gave my consent prior and all this time i was kinda confused thinking it was my fault and that there was something wrong w me. Thank you for explaining it to me, it makes me feel a lot better :)
Thanks for reaching out to us, and no, this is not a dumb question. It makes perfect sense. You are correct that consent means both people are 100% okay with each behavior that is happen. Remember consent to one kind of behavior does not mean consent to all behaviors. You are also correct that a person has the right to change their mind at any time and the other person must respect their wishes and stop immediately. If something has happened that made you feel uncomfortable, we recommend that you talk with a trusted adult about the situation.
I have a question because I'm really confused so recently my cousin came and gave me a hug then suddenly he kissed me on my neck for a moment and i got frozen he's like a brother to me he's actually 34 and I'm 19 I'm still confused and in that moment I felt like I was sexually harassed so is true??
I'm not sure if this is sexual harassment or assault but I remember I was 11 or 12 I can't remember but all I remember is that I was young. And my friend's brother would kiss me without asking me and he would touch my butt and he would hold my hand he didn't even ask. I would try to push him away but kept trying to kiss me... Edit: I forgot to mention that my friends brother was older than me.
Any kind of sexual behaviors or touching another person’s breasts, genitals or buttocks without that person’s permission (also known as consent) is sexual assault. I'm so sorry that this happened to you. We encourage you to speak to adult you trust to get the help you deserve. Keep telling adults until someone believes you.
I'm so sorry this happened to you. Do you have an adult or relative that you trust that you can speak to? Your safety is the most important. If you feel like it'd be better for you to speak to someone in confidence, RAINN.org has resources and volunteers that can help you.
AMAZE Org My family doesn’t want to talk with me my mom just yells at me and my grandma once pulled my shirt collar and chocked me and said to stop being over dramatic because depression was a sin and walked away my mom gives me 5 hour lectures on it and it hurts my feelings so I cry at night
@@Tadpole_Plyrr2 That's not okay, if it's safe you should definitely reach out to a trusted adult. And remember, what happened to you isn't your fault.
Forcefully kissing someone and grabbing them to pull you ontop of them-- is sexual assault. Have an old 63 year old women who tried to tell me it wasn't....
I don’t understand what’s so difficult to understand about the word no . I’ve said no so many different times and said I don’t consent . It’s very simple
This happened to me on roblox it was a weird oder turned out to be 8 years old.. he was calling me "babe" and stuff like that and said i had a nice butt on my tiktok which i unfriended and reported him.. About a month later he got banned and his account was deleted im happy that happened He even told me where he lives..
Hi, I'm sorry to hear about your experience. Sexual assault is not your fault, and you deserve to be safe. Please talk to your parent or another adult you trust, so they know what is going on and can help you.

You can also call the National Sexual Assault Hotline at 1(800) 656-HOPE (4673).
This might not be seen... but does it still count as harassment/assault if I was above the age of 18 when someone did these things to me? Can I still take legal action?
hi everyone, how do i defend a girl who is blamed by the public for being friendly to a guy that s*xually harassed her via text? (she is uncomfortable and anxious at the time)
If someone a little bit younger than me repeatedly slaps my butt does that count as sexual assault? This person has been doing this for a month straight. Does it also count if the person who did it was a girl?
I am so sorry to hear this! Any sexual behavior without consent is considered assault. I encourage you to speak up for yourself, ask them to stop and to tell an adult that you trust. Even if they are younger and the same gender, it is still wrong.
Thanks for suggesting that to other viewers. You’re not alone, and you deserve help and support. You were able to share here and offer some good advice.

Hikari _ Aka sorry it took a while for me to respond I told my mom right away she cared a lot asked me if I was OK if I needed therapy and stuff like that made a case and put them in jail I hope it works out for you and I’m sorry you had to go through that have a nice life I hope this helped
I don’t know if this is sexually assaulting me but, I was at a friends house when they closed the doors and told me to have s3x with them I told them no again and again until I have up trying and said yes (they didn’t do much really just told me to h0mp their leg and lift my shirt up) so idk if that is (we were eight and I should probably include they were female also the worst part was when we were done she went out of the room and talked to her mom like it was nothing!)
My boobs just got grabbed , on the street when I was going to buy college books,, I’m so angry, can even do or say anything, the random dude is gone. He was even talking to a girl, why did she not do anything, why friends with him, hate hate ppl so much.

Can I ask for help? Ever since I was 6 my dad would slap my butt. I didn't think it was weird because I didn't know if it was sexual assault or not. He would do this for six years and it always made me really uncomfortable. He would do it to my mom and call it "A Love Tap." Is this sexual assault? And if it is, what should I do? I don't want something major to happen like him getting arrested since my mom says he's the love of her life. I just hate being around him.

@@amazeorg Thank you so much. I have siblings and I am worried it will affect them if I do something. I think I will tell my Guidance Counselor. Thank you very much.
When I was 5yo my cousin had seggs with me for 2 yrs telling it was a game but when my sister got to know bout it she blamed me and blackmailed me for more than 10 yrs
Great question! We have a handful of videos about birth control! You can search on our channel homepage. Here's a video to get you started! ruclips.net/video/ypbxZQ8wEFY/видео.html
I'm in fifth grade and I have a friend who was asked by a classmate if she would have sex with him when she was older and she's worried about getting in trouble because she isn't supposed to message boys when he was being creepy and hitting on her mind you he's also a fifth grader as well
Hi, Softie, thank you for reaching out to us. If someone is sexually harassed, it is never that person’s fault. Your friend should not get into any trouble. No one has the right to bully or harass another person. If someone is being sexually harassed, they can tell the person harassing them to stop. If this does not stop the behavior, tell a trusted adult-like a parent, relative, teacher or coach-and keep telling adults until the harassment stops. If the harassment happens at school, speak with a guidance counselor, nurse or administrator to get help and find out if your school has a policy on bullying and harassment.
I still have a question... so let’s say a 30 year old man was touching a 9 year and an 11 year old on the butt without there consent. Is that considered sexual assault?
If it only happened twice (2 separate occasions) and they were just touching my butt but I told them to stop and they didn't is that sexual harassment?
Since I've seen a lot of stories here and I have no one else to talk to about this, I wanted to know if either of these situations are considered SA? The first was when I was around 8 years old, I went to my friends house and her older brother offered me a "massage". I didn't know what to say so I just agreed and laid down, and all I remember is him basically massaging/groping my ass (he was a highschooler at the time). The second time was when I was around the same age and had a friend who was 4 years older than me. He would peek through doors when I was changing, and I also remember a time he pinned me down and just stared at me, like he was considering something, and all I remember was being confused and scared. Thank you for any response to this from anyone, I'm just really confused :(
is this assault? (trigger warning if needed) 5 years ago (i was 10) there was a boy (12 i think) who i was trying to annoy and half-jokingly argue with (which he had done before). afterwards he came behind me when i was sitting on the floor talking to my friends, rested his hips on my shoulders, and started humping the back of my neck (i said nothing and neither did any of my friends but we were all clearly uncomfortable) but I only remembered this recently because I blocked it out for a long time and I know I couldn’t press charges or anything
At my school they wrote in the bathrooms that the scouts had sex with younger members and the scout captin did and knew of all of it and our club was looked at and we had no new members for a year and a half it hurt all of us really bad😓😫😓😫😓😫😓😨😨😨💔
So sorry this happened to you; it's never okay when people take advantage of others sexually. Not only does it hurt the person who's been taken advantage of, it can hurt everyone in the community who is also affected, just like what you described. Sending love and light to your whole club. ❤️
My mom says to me to close my legs because she could see my but but I was wearing pants and I didn’t feel uncomfortable with it plus why do she was looking and she dose it to my sisters too
My mother sometimes touches me in my private area... it's making me uncomfortable... I wish I could tell her to stop but i'm afraid she'll be mad at me...

is it sexual assault or harassment when a girl starts leaning against you and trying to give you a hickey on your shoulder? im trying to figure out the difference because it was clearly a sexual advance and i remember freezing up
Thanks for reaching out to us. We're sorry to hear that this happened to you. A person, regardless of their gender, does not have the right to touch another person in any way without their consent. It sounds like this person did not have your permission to touch you in this way, so they clearly overstepped a boundary. We encourage you to talk with a trusted adult about what happened and check out our videos on sexual harassment (amaze.org/video/personal-safety-sexual-assault/) and sexual assault (amaze.org/video/personal-safety-sexual-assault/) to learn more about the difference between the two.

I think this is fine if you're already dating, or if she's openly flirting back.
Unwanted flirting is also a form of sexual harassment. I know from personal experience in middle school. I told him to stop multiple times and he didn't listen to me. I told my parents, thinking that they would help me. But instead they were MAD at me. They said he was just trying to be "nice." A few weeks later I had to tell my vice principal, and luckily he was able to handle it. He told the boy to stop talking to me that way, and he did. The vice principal emailed my parents who then listened to me.
Just know that when you say no, it means no. Don't ever let anyone treat you in such a manner.

i have a question, do you know if kissing someone with our consent when they have asked you not to sexual harassment?
@@Willthewis3_yep, pretty much anything sexual someone does to you without consent is considered sexual harassment
This is the kinda stuff they should be teaching in school
Ikr
Agree.
We basically have to teach ourselves what we have to face in the real world.
I agree but they need to teach it in a different manner telling them fo stop doesn’t work we need actual self defense.
absolutely
“Usually, ignoring it won’t make it stop”
OH MY GOD FINALLY SOMEONE SAYS IT
Very educational good for the younger generations to listen to

It would be sexual assault if the person kissed you on the mouth even knowing you don't want it? There was a time when an old friend started touching me and in the end kissed me on the lips even that I said no. Sorry stupid question
Hey Rk, this is not a stupid question! Any kind of sexual behaviors or touching another person’s breasts, genitals or buttocks WITHOUT that person’s permission (also known as consent) is sexual assault. I'm so sorry this happened to you. Just know that it wasn't your fault and that this person was a terrible friend to you. It sounds like this friendship has ended, but if it hasn't, we encourage you to talk to an adult you trust. You deserve support!
@@amazeorg thank you very much. I wasn't sure if it was assault and didn't wanted to tell everyone a lie (if it wasn't). And no, I'm not talking to him anymore ;)
This happened to me at a friend's birthday party and a person suddenly came up and kissed me on the mouth, they then pretended nothing happened and I didn't really process what happened or remember what happened until recently. I got a flashback and I wanted to know if it counted too.
Also, I'm so sorry this happened to you
@@adrienuhhhh yes it does it is assault bcs u didnt consent .
love how supportive and open you guys are
Since i keep seeing people talking about their stories i thought i'd do the same since i know there's no where else for me to say this but, a relative has been making me feel uncomfortable for about 3 years now and i just dont know how to feel or what to do, they keep telling me to do stuff im uncomfortable with but they just laugh and keep holding me in place forcefully and it takes around a few minutes of constantly saying no to get them off of me. I dont know how much longer this will go on and im scared. My parents would kill me or not believe me so its no use telling them. Thank you for coming to my rant.
I am so sorry this is happening to you. This is not okay. It is not your fault, and you have done nothing wrong. We want to make sure you get some help. It sounds like you will have to find other trusted adults to help you, like another family member, teacher, friend’s parent or neighbor.

This had me thinking about that old show Pucca, I started watching it ever since my friend suggested me watching it. So i watched the reboot one on netflix and the old one on youtube. It didnt click at first that whenever Pucca kisses Garu without his consent that it would be this, and when it did I couldnt look at the show the same anymore😔I kinda wish i never really thought about it in this kind of light to be honest,,
I just looked this up because I wanted to know if that girl in school constantly touching me like that was something normal people do. Turns out it isn't and I have a lot of stuff to reflect on.
I'm so sorry to hear this! Please speak to an adult that you trust if you feel that they won't stop. Just know that its not your fault!
Great vid i think that is soo bad when in one school dont learn about sexuallity thank for explain!!!🖤👏

Malena Acevedo I agree! I live in Poland (I'm half Us half Polish.) and in my opinion our president is a total jerk... anyway, he was like "Children don't want to learn about sex, how people are born, sexual harrasing and so on! We don't need that kind of education!" He almost took down the school subject focusing on these type of things! If anyone was wondering, yes in Polish schools there is a whole subject on that and I'm personally glad there is. I think its very important to learn about this. And I'm also glad that there is a youtube channel focused on that topic, that way its available for everyone and we can all learn!
Kids, there's nothing more cool than being hugged by someone you like, but if someone tries to touch you in a place or in a way that makes you feel uncomfortable, that's NO GOOD! It's your body! No one has the right to touch you if you don't want them to! So what do you do? First, you say no, then you get outta there! Most important, you gotta tell someone you trust, like your parents, your teacher or a police officer
You r absolutely right
I have seen multiple videos about sexual assault. And one thing stood out to me: There is a too strong emphasis on the specific places a person has to touch you, for you to be sexual assaulted. It is always: breasts, inner thigh, genitals or butt. Every place you don't want to be touched is wrong! If it feels sexual and wrong, then it is wrong. I can't stretch that enough.
Hi there, you are absolutely correct. Any unwanted touch or sexual attention classifies as sexual assault and/or sexual harassment.
Wait so if some one touched me near my genitals say it's to make sure my kidney is in place would that be considered sexual assault? Please answer me fast
What about abs? (For guys)
Those places are just more common.
I'm an aromantic asexual and even just a simple flirt makes me very uncomfortable. Thankfully, I've never expirienced this but I still have to be wary.
Im also aromantic axesual
Yikes. I remember one time I was on visitation with my Dad. I was 12 at the time. (a couple years ago) My Grandfather's girlfriend was sitting in the car with me alone at the time. My Dad and Grandfather were getting something in the house. Anyway, she slowly touched my inner thighs and touched my hair and nails. She kept on asking me REPEATEDLY to talk to her and use my phone. I felt really uncomfortable and just ignored her. Pretty soon I got tired of her doing that to me, so I got out of the car and called the police. They came very quick and then took me back home. I felt so dirty. We had to deal with court and everything. Thank God I don't have to see my Dad anymore. The whole visitation thing was messed up.
We are so sorry that you had that awful experience. We're proud of you for having the courage to call for help. You sharing your story may help someone else as well!

That school scene hit me-
They go to school
I’ve been sexually assaulted by my classmate for over a year and I hope I can start fresh by moving schools
But now I can’t really get close to anyone I hate being touched now I’m paranoid of everyone who
Ye I was in the same situation. I moved schools and I’m ok now but I’m still very uncomfortable with males and all my male friends kind of make me uncomfortable because I tried to talk abt my sexual assault today and he said “sexual assault is kinky”. Another one of my friends said “haha funny” it rlly hurts to hear them say that but they aren’t rlly educated so i forgive them :/
i hope i figure out my problem im getting harassed badly
Thank you finally someone who's not sexist
So as a man when it comes to physical contact you should ask all the time can I kiss you ? Can I touch you ? Woudnt the women get fed up eventually???
if she gets fed up then she aint one. she is type of person who would falsely accuse u after the deed.
When someone tells you a dirty joke and you didn’t want to be told that and you told them that you are uncomfortable about that and said no, but they told you anyways, is that sexual harassment?
Great question! If someone is saying sexual things to you against your will, even if they're jokes, that can be a type of sexual harassment. If you're feeling extra concerned about it, you might want to let a trusted adult know so that they might be able to help you address it.
AMAZE Org thanks a lot, that really helped!☺️
NO. Its just a joke. No one feels uncomfortable for that
What if at the moment the partner said yes and later he/she was not happy with the sex? Then he/she accused the other for sexual assault and there was not evidence that included the verbal consent. What should the accused person do?
Thanks for writing to us with your important question. There is a big difference between a person not enjoying sexual touching with a partner and someone being sexually assaulted. If a person is legally accused of sexual assault, they would want to consult with a lawyer to help with any legal charges that might have been brought against them. The courts can appoint one if the person doesn't have the resources or familiarity with a lawyer they could use. It would be important to get help from professionals to figure out what the best path forward is.
This video really opened my eyes, thank you so much.
Thank you for watching!
Quick question what does it mean if an older guy grabbed your waist and you felt uncomfortable?
It’s not right that this happened to you, and it is not your fault. No one should touch you in a sexual way. This includes family members, other adults and other kids. Don’t keep this a secret. Find someone you trust, like a parent, family member, teacher, coach, a friend’s parent or neighbor, and tell them what happened. There are people out there who can help. If the first adult you tell doesn’t believe you or doesn’t do anything to help protect you, keep telling other trusted adults until you get help.
Someone harassed me sexually and I curbed the thing for a whole year until I told my family about it and I did not take my right from it because we were in another city

@@amazeorg thank you so much for the advice! I will try my best and talk to adults a trust, and to get some help! 💕
I know im a bit late, but has anyone been in this situation/have advice for this? One guy in my class has been harassing me for weeks now, repeatedly asking me dirty questions and touching me. I’m not sure if this counts as sexual assault because he’s only touched my leg. Also- if it does count, how should i address this with my teachers and parents? Everytime i want to talk about it i feel embarrassed, i’m not supposed to know what words like “sex” or “genitals” mean since im fairly young.
I'm so sorry this is happening to you! Its not your fault and you should absolutely tell an adult that you trust. Start first with your parents and they should be able to guide you on next steps to help you and get this person to stop. If they can't help, keep telling adults until someone believes you.
@@amazeorg thank you! just today ive gotten up the courage to tell someone, now both my parents and teachers know. the guy’s also getting an F on conduct. feels like a rock off my shoulders
I work as a hostess and communicate with servers. One of the servers is the flirty type. He does unwelcoming gestures like a hug and an attempt to kiss me on the cheek. He will also put his finger in my pocket. He also laid his hand on my a**. All of these things were unwelcomed and I have a boyfriend. I don’t know how to tell my boyfriend, he’s going to get upset that I never reported it. But I want to tell him. I was harassed before at a party and he said I should have slapped the guy but what can you do in the moment when you don’t want to make a scene? I would feel guilty to report him bc I would feel like I’m overreacting. I never make my boundaries clear because I don’t want work tension but I’m uncomfortable with it. I need real advice!!
Thank you for sharing. I'm so sorry that you're experiencing this. Often people may experience sexual assault and not realize that's what they've experienced simply because they haven't discussed with anyone else. That's why it's very important that if you do feel concerned about an experience you've had you reach out to someone you trust.
Don't be afraid to reach out now! Since it is happening at work and can be overwhelming to worry about the consequences of telling someone. BUT, you need to. It's not your fault and if your boyfriend doesn't believe you, keep telling an adult until someone does.

There's my uncle whome I really trusted. He always looked such a gentleman and with manners . He used and still gives me sweets , chocolates , and snacks. He used to and still talk about my body a lot while staring at my genitals and private parts. He used to touch my private areas and as I was kid , I thought it was normal.

Is it sexual assault that my mom's male friend kissed me on my head for an amount of times when he was comforting me after I had a little argument with my mom? I think he knows I don't like intimate actions such as "friendly" kissing.
I know I am late to this video, but I just wanted to say, I was 9 when my “friend” who was 10 years old told me to play a game with her, I was really naive back then and did not understand anything, I was also afraid to say no due to a trauma I had in the past, she told me to show her my private part, I didn’t want to but she insisted that it was just a game and that I had to do it because those were the rules, I was to afraid to just say no as I said before, she started touching me, I didn’t know what to do so I just stayed there like a statue not knowing what to do, after that time I never wanted to see her again, but she continued talking to me, and when she invited me to sleepovers I couldnt say no because my mom would ask if we fought or what happened, and I was afraid to tell the truth and didn’t know what to do, I was scared.... I moved schools a year later so I don’t talk to her anymore, I blocked her on everything. And if I ever saw her somewhere I would always avoid her and never talk to her, I would run the opposite direction. I am 12 now but I cannot not stop thinking and feeling disgusted and bad about myself, I kinda hate myself for it and for being naive and not knowing nor understanding what was happening back then and that it was bad, now I understand and I really hate this feeling when I remember those times. But it was all my fault for being so dumb and stupid.

what happened to you is not your fault. Im soo soo sorry someone did that to you.
hi, something very similar happened to me when I was 9 years old too. The girl who did that to me was also 9 years old. Im sorry this happened to you too.
"she told me to show her private part" Yours or hers? And if you did show yours then it does count as consent.
if only it were this easy
Unfortunately it’s not
Its not at all easy since there is no evidence
(School example)
For instance if you told the principal and they keep doing or parents got involved but they STILL did it what should I do?
im sorry if it's a dumb question but is it sexual harassment or smth when you agreed to something prior, but then felt uncomfortable in the moment and you start backing out but the guy refuses or he starts complaining becuase you gave consent prior. im not sure if this makes sense, but consent means you are 100% okay with it, so if you suddenly feel uncomfortable is it non-consexual or not? I'm sorry it it doesnt make sense lmao
it stops being consentual the moment you pull away and refuse to go any further, even if you gave consent prior
@@aerozin okay thank you so much! This kinda happened to me before and he was sulking and saying that i alr gave my consent prior and all this time i was kinda confused thinking it was my fault and that there was something wrong w me. Thank you for explaining it to me, it makes me feel a lot better :)
Thanks for reaching out to us, and no, this is not a dumb question. It makes perfect sense. You are correct that consent means both people are 100% okay with each behavior that is happen. Remember consent to one kind of behavior does not mean consent to all behaviors. You are also correct that a person has the right to change their mind at any time and the other person must respect their wishes and stop immediately. If something has happened that made you feel uncomfortable, we recommend that you talk with a trusted adult about the situation.
If you stopped giving consent, it's no longer consensual.
I'm sorry that happened to you
2:29 Why specifically "he". This is a two-way street, ladies and gentlemen
This. I was assaulted by a woman.
I have a question because I'm really confused so recently my cousin came and gave me a hug then suddenly he kissed me on my neck for a moment and i got frozen he's like a brother to me he's actually 34 and I'm 19 I'm still confused and in that moment I felt like I was sexually harassed so is true??
Yeah, that's not normal, I think it's sexual harassment
I'm not sure if this is sexual harassment or assault but I remember I was 11 or 12 I can't remember but all I remember is that I was young. And my friend's brother would kiss me without asking me and he would touch my butt and he would hold my hand he didn't even ask. I would try to push him away but kept trying to kiss me...
Edit: I forgot to mention that my friends brother was older than me.
Any kind of sexual behaviors or touching another person’s breasts, genitals or buttocks without that person’s permission (also known as consent) is sexual assault.

Forcefully kissing someone and grabbing them to pull you ontop of them-- is sexual assault. Have an old 63 year old women who tried to tell me it wasn't....
I don’t understand what’s so difficult to understand about the word no . I’ve said no so many different times and said I don’t consent . It’s very simple
No is a complete sentence and we need to normalize rejection.
And what if there is absence of no?
This happened to me on roblox it was a weird oder turned out to be 8 years old.. he was calling me "babe" and stuff like that and said i had a nice butt on my tiktok which i unfriended and reported him..

it does not matter how old you are, sexual assault and sexual harassment is still wrong and very illegal
hi everyone, how do i defend a girl who is blamed by the public for being friendly to a guy that s*xually harassed her via text? (she is uncomfortable and anxious at the time)
I hope they would also teach this in sex ed... This would have been helpful 🥺
I watched this because I thought I was and I just started crying because it was my own grandparents
If someone a little bit younger than me repeatedly slaps my butt does that count as sexual assault? This person has been doing this for a month straight. Does it also count if the person who did it was a girl?
I am so sorry to hear this! Any sexual behavior without consent is considered assault. I encourage you to speak up for yourself, ask them to stop and to tell an adult that you trust. Even if they are younger and the same gender, it is still wrong.

Ever since I was 6 my dad would slap my butt. I didn't think it was weird because I didn't know if it was sexual assault or not.

Hi, Softie, thank you for reaching out to us. If someone is sexually harassed, it is never that person’s fault. Your friend should not get into any trouble.
No one has the right to bully or harass another person. If someone is being sexually harassed, they can tell the person harassing them to stop. If this does not stop the behavior, tell a trusted adult-like a parent, relative, teacher or coach-and keep telling adults until the harassment stops.
If the harassment happens at school, speak with a guidance counselor, nurse or administrator to get help and find out if your school has a policy on bullying and harassment.
I still have a question... so let’s say a 30 year old man was touching a 9 year and an 11 year old on the butt without there consent. Is that considered sexual assault?
Yes that is assault
Ok did you put this as a joke? Ofc it assault
If it only happened twice (2 separate occasions) and they were just touching my butt but I told them to stop and they didn't is that sexual harassment?
I’m sorry this happened this happened to you. Your boundaries were crossed and you did not consent to that behavior. Please tell a trusted adult.
I double like your video
Since I've seen a lot of stories here and I have no one else to talk to about this, I wanted to know if either of these situations are considered SA? The first was when I was around 8 years old, I went to my friends house and her older brother offered me a "massage". I didn't know what to say so I just agreed and laid down, and all I remember is him basically massaging/groping my ass (he was a highschooler at the time). The second time was when I was around the same age and had a friend who was 4 years older than me. He would peek through doors when I was changing, and I also remember a time he pinned me down and just stared at me, like he was considering something, and all I remember was being confused and scared. Thank you for any response to this from anyone, I'm just really confused :(

Jej 1st🤩
is this assault? (trigger warning if needed)
5 years ago (i was 10) there was a boy (12 i think) who i was trying to annoy and half-jokingly argue with (which he had done before). afterwards he came behind me when i was sitting on the floor talking to my friends, rested his hips on my shoulders, and started humping the back of my neck (i said nothing and neither did any of my friends but we were all clearly uncomfortable) but I only remembered this recently because I blocked it out for a long time and I know I couldn’t press charges or anything
First😻🤭
At my school they wrote in the bathrooms that the scouts had sex with younger members and the scout captin did and knew of all of it and our club was looked at and we had no new members for a year and a half it hurt all of us really bad😓😫😓😫😓😫😓😨😨😨💔
So sorry this happened to you; it's never okay when people take advantage of others sexually. Not only does it hurt the person who's been taken advantage of, it can hurt everyone in the community who is also affected, just like what you described. Sending love and light to your whole club. ❤️
My mom says to me to close my legs because she could see my but but I was wearing pants and I didn’t feel uncomfortable with it plus why do she was looking and she dose it to my sisters too
Why do people with STD's/STI;s bully or harass people for sex still? narcissist personality secret.
good video
Thanks! Glad you liked it!
My mother sometimes touches me in my private area... it's making me uncomfortable... I wish I could tell her to stop but i'm afraid she'll be mad at me...

is it sexual assault or harassment when a girl starts leaning against you and trying to give you a hickey on your shoulder? im trying to figure out the difference because it was clearly a sexual advance and i remember freezing up
Thanks for reaching out to us. We're sorry to hear that this happened to you. A person, regardless of their gender, does not have the right to touch another person in any way without their consent. It sounds like this person did not have your permission to touch you in this way, so they clearly overstepped a boundary. We encourage you to talk with a trusted adult about what happened and check out our videos on sexual harassment (amaze.org/video/personal-safety-sexual-assault/) and sexual assault (amaze.org/video/personal-safety-sexual-assault/) to learn more about the difference between the two.
