Rape
Rape, unfortunately, is an extremely common crime in the United States. Any woman moving to the United States should get as much information as she can about rape prevention. Nearly every community has a counseling center. Learn the law. If someone you know, even well, forces you to have sex against your will, that is criminal rape. If you are raped, do not wash in any way, call the police immediately, and try to remember every detail about the attacker.
