A study by ABC News back in 2004 revealed some alarming facts about sex on the first date:
17 percent of women report having had sex on a first date
42 percent of men report having had sex on a first date.
Experts warn women tend to underestimate those figures and men tend to overestimate.

Dating violence is on the rise we’re sorry to say. When there’s testosterone and booze involved it can be a very unpleasant situation.
Here are some great tips to minimise risk of getting into difficult situation:
1 – Avoid drinking heavily. Keep drinking to a minimum and always be aware how much they are putting away. If they are drinking too heavily then make your ecuses to go early.
2 – Be prepared. Be ready to attract the attention of people nearby with a rape alarm or even a scream.
3 – Stick to busy places. On early dates make sure you are in a densly populated bar.
4 – Remain calm & rational. If they do show signs of potential violence don’t start crying or pleading. This may actually make him get off on the situation.
5 – Repulse them. If violence looks iminant, try and vomit or urinate to get their mind off any images they may have cungered up.
6 – Get evidence. If you are a victim of dating violence do not clean yourself. Get straight to the police station, report it and get them to take samples.
