I see your point, but the premise backed by that last sentence is fundamentally flawed in my eyes because prejudice leads to division. If you assume there is a high chance that any man you meet is a rapist, then you'll avoid men and eventually have so little interaction with men that you begin to believe they all de facto equate to this mental image of a monster. And that is the problem.

I'm going to follow this up later, maybe not today, with my interpretation of rape statistics for anyone willing to discuss, because now I'm curious how that would contribute to this discussion. Here's what I have so far, anyone is free to contribute to the discussion:

According to RAINN:

  • ~18% US females experience sexual assault
  • ~3% US males experience sexual assault

What I'm looking for specifically here, in addition to other context, is what percentage of each anatomical sex demographic is responsible for perpetrating. It is perhaps a given that it will be disproportionately male, but I need numbers to illustrate my perspective. Also need to account for domestic abuse and whatever else can be used as an argument for why either sex is dangerous to the other, open to any serious suggestions, will ignore any insincere discussion at this point.
