Unacknowledged rape

Unacknowledged rape is defined as a sexual experience that meets the legal definition of rape, but is not labeled as rape by the victim, either at the time or afterward.[1] This response is more frequently recognized among victims of acquaintance rape, date rape or marital rape.
