'Young women in their 20s and 30s are part of the 'chemical generation'. They grew up around drugs and take them for granted. Even if they haven't used drugs, they've absorbed the idea of instant gratification.

'Drug rape is a much bigger problem than has so far been recognised. Only a tiny proportion of all rapes are ever reported and we believe that in date rape the proportion is even smaller, particularly due to the fact that the victims just aren't aware what happened to them.'(Cosmopolitan)
British Police warn that GHB assisted attacks are on the increase.
