My male friend said “more men are raped by women than women are raped by men” which is very factually incorrect, but he didn’t believe me when I said so bc I didn’t have the statistics right there
98% of rapists and 92% of sex offenders are male.
The vast majority of rape victims are female, but those who rape men are almost always other males.
Males account for over 70% (73.5%) of perpetrators of violent crime.
Females are disproportionately targeted by criminals on the basis of their sex.
85% of domestic violence victims are women, and 96% of reported pedophiles are men. 18% of women will be the victim of rape or a rape attempt (as opposed to 3% of men). Texas just made creep-shots legal, twenty-two states enacted 70 abortion restrictions during 2013. Politicians are working to give rapists legal assistance. *
[from this post] (*for some reason the ncadv links are broken, but you can find their current statistics HERE)
Women and girls are the vast majority of victims: As noted, nearly 1 in 5 women has been raped in her lifetime.
by contrast, 1 in 71 men will be raped according to the above study. But 1 in 33 men will be raped according to this source by rainn.org.
80% of disabled women are sexually assaulted.
Indigenous women face the highest amount of rape, with 34.1% of our sisters becoming victims.
Your friend probably only even said “more women are rapists” because he feels sad when it is pointed out that men are mostly rapists and he wanted to lash out emotionally.
