As I was explaining in an earlier post, "data battles" always fail. When attempting to dispute data, you need to read and understand various data sources from differing years and understand the full contexts of the data.

Read this 2000 report, especially page 10 under "how extensive is rape among college women" paying particular attention to the paragraph beginning with "at first glance...": https://www.ncjrs.gov/pdffiles1/nij/182369.pdf

Read these:
http://www.nij.gov/topics/crime/rape...s/welcome.aspx

http://www.nij.gov/topics/crime/rape...measuring.aspx

http://www.nij.gov/topics/crime/rape...-attacker.aspx

(speaking of cultural factors/correlates found in research) http://www.nij.gov/topics/crime/rape...ased-risk.aspx

http://www.nij.gov/topics/crime/rape...ages/laws.aspx

http://www.nij.gov/topics/crime/rape...revention.aspx

For someone who claims not to care about MEANING, you sure are putting a lot of emphasis on "crisis" as though only you know the true meaning of "crisis". So, when does this become a "crisis"? Who gets to determine that?

Is that your way of saying you already knew/agree with what I posted and you are just typing to be contrary? Thanks for finally admitting that.
