The Association of Women for Action and Research (Aware) said of the 136 calls and e-mails it got from victims of sexual crimes last year, the victims knew their attackers in 120 cases.
Ms Jolene Tan, Aware's senior manager for programmes and communications, said: "Perpetrators of sexual assaults could be friends, co-workers, boyfriends, husbands or business associates.
"While perpetrators may sexually assault women they know for a range of reasons, the fundamental problem is that they do not respect women's freedom over their bodies, and as a society we are too willing to excuse or justify their behaviour."
