This paper discusses the serious problem of sexual violence on women depending on at what point in his life it took place and depending on a wide number of demographic variables that allow to provide a description of the profile of the victims and the conditions that make more likely that victimization. An observational retrospective cohort was conducted. For this purpose, we elaborated an interview where we asked about different variables that were answered by sample of women attending the Association of Women Victims of Sexual Assault to declare that they had suffered sexual violence. They did an interview with some variables: frequency of sexual violence suffered, socioeconomic status of the victim, relationship with the perpetrator, age difference between the victim and the aggressor, time since sexual violence happened, strategies used by the perpetrator or family support received. The conclusions suggest the existence of two profiles, and these profiles can be used to improve the quality of the prevention programs for women victims of sexual violence.
