Sorry, early today!
Also: I'm not going to officially warn for tongue-in-cheek "triggers" just to provide anyone with a fandom-specific in-joke when there are none in the secret.

Re: Teaching Men Not to Rape (tw)
(Anonymous) 2013-01-13 05:18 pm (UTC)(link)There are studies out there that say as many as 40% of rape reports are false. One went as far as to say 90%. There are those that say it's smaller. I think much of the trouble probably comes from the fact that you can't really have 1000 or less cases represent a country. Every time you do it you're likely to come out with different results.
I think particularly with rape there's a lot of questioning that doesn't go far enough. For example a popularly cited report from a 1982 MS Magazine says one in three women in have been raped. A popular report to use in conjunction with anti-rape campaigns because that's a big number.
Most women (3/4ths) who the report stated had been raped had said they didn't think that had been raped. They didn't feel victimized. The director herself has said she now thinks the questions were too vague. There's still arguments about who gets to decide who was raped. The 'victim' or a study.
Most survey's never even bother to report on men. Looking now I've found several with the hypothesis that men are lying to get out of trouble. Confirmation biased victim blaming for everyone!
I think there's barely any work done in the area of homosexual intimate partner rape/sexual abuse. For that I've seen as high as 50% of lesbian partners report abuse. In the population of humanity 50% of lesbians is a small number, but if it were 50% of straight women currently in relationships we'd be shitting our pants trying to find who to blame. I mean gosh, we already are and it's not near that.
