When going to the beach it's always important to check for riptides from a higher level to get a clear view of the riptide. However riptides are hard to spot and you can get caught without being able to spot it.

If caught in a riptide the best thing to do is swim sideways not towards the shore or the ocean, when out of the riptide then swim to shore or call for help by raising a fist in the air (this should be done while in the riptide as well).

a lot of the time women are the victim however men can also be the victim.

not understanding why taken advantage of someone is wrong is common.

As a female this information is helpful to try and avoid some of the situations here but it's important that others know how much it can hurt someone physically and emotionally, and even taking precautions can still lead to a bad situation so knowing where to go or what to get done like a rape kit after it is vey helpful.
