Well what actually happens depends on the situation. The basic thing is that someone is forced to have sex against their will. The details vary. There are different kinds of rape.
The one that most people picture is when someone is attacked at night in the street or park or something by a stranger. However, rape can happen in the home, in the workplace, anywhere really. It can also be done by anyone, stranger or otherwise.
Another type that people think about a lot is date rape. This is usually where a stranger or person you have met with spikes your drink with drugs or more alcohol than you thought you were consuming. This makes you drowsy or very drunk, making it easy for the person to rape you.
Don't be scared. Rape isn't very common. Just stay safe and try and stick with other people when you go out at night. If you do have to go somewhere alone then take main routes, don't be tempted cut through alley ways or deserted parks to get home quicker as it will just make you more vunerable. Also, another thing you could do is to carry your keys in your hand. Then if anyone trys to harm you, you can give them a quick jab in the eye with them and run away. It also stops you from rummaging around in your bag on your doorstep for your keys, so you can get inside quicker.

Dear God, child. You don't know what rape is, and you're scared of it? Jesus. Rape - When someone has sex with someone else against their will. And when that happens, don't change your clothes, and go straight to the police. :)

Huh? What the hell do you mean what happens? It's the same thing as sex only one of the people is being forced to do it against their will. I hate to be blunt but the penis enters the vagina, and if there's no condom you get pregnant. I have no idea what else to tell you hun.
I hope that helped.

When someone has forced sex with you. As in if you say "no" but they do it anyway, you've been raped.

Rape is sex against your will.
It doesn't have to be intercourse; a wide variety of sexual acts can constitute rape in most states.
That said, there are different kinds of rape. There's direct assault, by a stranger or someone known to you; that can happen on the street, in your house, or anywhere else.
There's "date rape", in which you go on a date or out with a friend. Perhaps you kiss or have some degree of sexual relations - but they take it further than you're willing to go, and when you say "no", they don't stop.
Victims of date rape sometimes blame themselves, thinking that they led the other person on. This is NOT TRUE. Once you've said "no", that's it.
In the case of assault, if you think you might face that situation - if you live or work in a high-crime area, for example - it's a very good idea to prepare. Always be aware of where you are, particularly at night, and try not to be alone. Carry a loud whistle or an air-horn. Some people use pepper spray or mace, although that may not always be a good idea and I believe it's illegal in some states.
If you're being attacked, GET LOUD. Don't let them take you off to a private location, DON'T cooperate. Scream as loudly as you can and fight as if your life depended on it. Bite, particularly the soft parts of the face like the nose and cheeks if you can reach them. Claw at their eyes, HARD. You can try to kick a male in the groin, but don't count on that working - it doesn't always.
Once you break away, run to the most public spot you can find and ask for help, loudly.
Self-defense classes are offered in many towns, cities, and schools. These aren't martial arts or anything like that; just practical information on how to save your life when you're in serious trouble.
If you've been raped in any way, date rape or assault, call the police immediately. Don't wash yourself or clean up in any way - you could destroy evidence that could help the police catch your attacker. You'll probably be taken to a hospital for the evidence to be collected. You may also be given an AIDS test, and later a pregnancy test.
There are many national, regional, and local rape hotlines and websites across America. The number one site according to Google is:
[Link](Mouse over link to see full location)
And their hotline (a toll-free number, I believe you should be able to call it from your cell or from any pay phone even if you don't have any change) is 1-800-656-4673 (24 hrs).
If you are raped, please remember that it is NOT YOUR FAULT. Get all the support that you can, because there are few experiences in life that are more devastating. Don't be ashamed or embarrassed to ask for help.
You should also be aware (if you're a man) that it's possible for men to be raped as well, either by other men or by women. Rape hotlines will support men who have been raped, as well as women.
I sincerely hope that you will never actually need any of this information, and I wish you the best of luck.
PS - I just thought of another intepretation of your question - if I'm wrong about this, sorry. But if the FEAR of rape is constantly on your mind, and you haven't been raped yourself nor know anyone who has been raped (or have a good reason to expect to be raped), that's a problem. If you find yourself obsessed with the thought of rape (or with ANY frightening thought), you need to talk to someone - your parents, a counsellor if you're at school, a mental health specialist or perhaps a member of the clergy (a priest, minister, or rabbi).
Obsessive fears can destroy your life, but you don't have to live with them - effective help is available. Again, I'm not suggesting that that's your problem - it just seemed like a possibility.
Best of luck.

Wow! This question might have scared me a bit. Why would you be afraid of getting raped??? I mean, of course no one WANTS to be raped, as it is a terrible, terrifying, degrading occurrance, but why would you think it would happen to you??? Of course the people who GET raped are the ones thinking it could never happen to them, and it DOES happen every single day.... but you REALLY shouldn't worrie about this, Hun. And as far "WHAT HAPPENS", that varies from each individual case. Maybe their boyfriends just went too far?? Maybe they have an abusive alcoholic father who is in too much of a daze to know any better. Maybe they were kidnapped?? It all depends... If you're really THIS worried, perhaps you should talk to your parents about this? Is that at all possible?? You can't go around fearing this forever... that's unhealthy, and you certainly CAN NOT live like that. I really hope you can overcome this.. this is very saddening.. Just know that I am here if you'd ever like to talk. =]
