1. Is this sexual abuse? YES

2. If she didn't try to stop him, is it her fault or is she guilty for not trying to stop him? NO

3. Did he take adavantage of her? Considering the man was intoxicated this may have been lack of judgement on his behalf.. may not be fully intented.. unsure.. does she feel like shes been taken advantage of.. cos her feelings are what matter

4. What role does fear play on her part? fear is a response in association with fight or flight .. in her case fear may have prevented her from standin up and punchin the man in the face..(or stoppin it in some other way)

5. If she decides that indeed this was abuse, where could she turn to for help in telling her story and finding support? has she a supportive GP that she may be able to seek a referral to a therapist. depending on her local area there may be some supportive phone centres that she can call anonymously or clinics she can self refer to for counselling..the next has some great sites to...
