This article focuses on sexual assertiveness and adolescents sexual rights. It discusses the findings of research by Rickert Sanghvi and Weiman which highlights the substantial vulnerability of young women many of whom believe that they lack the most basic of sexual rights such as the right not to have intercourse if they do not wish to the right to tell a partner that he is being too rough or the right to use any form of birth control during intercourse.
