Answer to Question 1

D
Rape is not a crime of sex, but rather a crime of power, control, and humiliation. The perpetrator wishes to subjugate the victim. The dynamics listed in the other options are not the major motivating factors for rape.

Answer to Question 2

A
Moving from victim to survivor status is a process that can go on for months to years. It involves integrating the memories of the trauma and moving on in life with restored functioning, a reasonable sense of safety and security, healthy relationships, and improved self-esteem. The other needs can usually be met in the short term.
