Interest in the phenomenon of date rape is growing in the UK. It is clear that a high percentage of the rapes which are not reported or successfully prosecuted are acquaintance and date rape. This book aims to help clarify the issue. It begins by looking at the emergence of the issue against the background of feminist activism on rape, and moves on to a detailed examination of accounts of date rape, and a discussion of the boundaries between coercive and non-coercive sex.
