is in fact related to the rape experience number. Now it is your turn to provide numbers that back whatever claim you are making (and I note that you have continued throughout this discussion to not pin yourself down to any number.) Put up or shut up. What's the number and where is your data?

is there actually people who believe that all men are rapists and attracted to little girls [View all] loli phabay Aug 2012 OP

No. Warren Stupidity Aug 2012 #1

I think it's more like all men are "potential" rapists.. Upton Aug 2012 #2

that is a novel, and what you posted is a literary device known as hyperbole. Warren Stupidity Aug 2012 #3

Since we're throwing out numbers.. Upton Aug 2012 #5

Nobody will up and say rape isnt a problem. Warren Stupidity Aug 2012 #6

okay rape is a problem. and proving rape is a problem loli phabay Aug 2012 #7

ipad much? Warren Stupidity Aug 2012 #8

You equated a man who talked to a woman in an elevator with a serial killer/rapist 4th law of robotics Aug 2012 #10

no i did not, you said that, I didn't. Warren Stupidity Aug 2012 #16

You can look at a random person for a few seconds and determine her entire life-experience 4th law of robotics Aug 2012 #17

again you just trivialize the problem. Warren Stupidity Aug 2012 #30

Lets be clear..are you suggesting 16% of men are rapists? Upton Aug 2012 #12

No I said you could not sustain your assertion that 0.1% of men commit all the rapes. Warren Stupidity Aug 2012 #14

What percentage of men do *you* think are rapists? 4th law of robotics Aug 2012 #18

I have no idea. It is related to the rape experience level for women. Warren Stupidity Aug 2012 #21

Well logically it has to fall somewhere between 1 person and 51 million men (16%) 4th law of robotics Aug 2012 #24

My guess: 5-10%. Warren Stupidity Aug 2012 #26

You actually believe about 1 in 15 of the men you meet are rapists? 4th law of robotics Aug 2012 #31

16% of women have a rape experience in their lives. Warren Stupidity Aug 2012 #36

FULL STOP 4th law of robotics Aug 2012 #38

"And actual rape only, not elevator talkers or porn watchers." Warren Stupidity Aug 2012 #46

That had nothing to do with the 16% statistic 4th law of robotics Aug 2012 #47

according to this study its about 4 percent Mosby Aug 2012 #57

There are a couple of studies cited in that piece. redqueen Aug 2012 #58

Yes, and the take away Mosby Aug 2012 #64

Yep, a small number among those who aren't caught, & none of them consider what they did as rape. nt redqueen Aug 2012 #72

So, in other words..most men aren't rapists. Upton Aug 2012 #59

So you agree that 0.1 % was total bullshit. Warren Stupidity Aug 2012 #63

Thank you.. Upton Aug 2012 #66

I'm good with 4% too. Warren Stupidity Aug 2012 #61

Since one in 18 men (5.5%) are CURRENTLY behind bars or being monitored, lumberjack_jeff Aug 2012 #67

No, it doesn't. redqueen Aug 2012 #71

Thanks for the clarification. That stands to reason. lumberjack_jeff Aug 2012 #73

Does the CDC study work for you as a reputable source? MadrasT Aug 2012 #15

I'm curious what those stats would be if they included statutory rape 4th law of robotics Aug 2012 #20

The claims presented are based on what appears to be dubious data 4th law of robotics Aug 2012 #49
