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...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

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?
Dr. Phil, the President and Vice President of the United States (among others) have declared it a crisis, citing the 1 in 5 statistic. It's been all over the news being declared a crisis. What in the heck are you babbling on about here?

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.
There you go again.
