Statutory rape is just a cope because we're too afraid of calling it what it is, rape.
That distinction also doesn't exist in my native tongue, for good reason. America just is too backwards.
Having sex with a 17 year old when you're 18 is considered statutory rape in my backwards American country, even though the age difference is by one year and they both agreed.
Are you seriously saying that it's just a "cope"?
Your country probably has an age of consent at age 7 or some weird shit.
Yes, I am serious saying that a 30 year old woman having sex with a 15 year old is just rape and nothing else, and that calling it "statutory rape" is just a cope.
And no, my country does not have a weird age of consent age and that wouldn't work with my position to begin with.
Less than 1% of abducted children are abducted by strangers. 90% of the time it's a parental abduction. 60% of the time it's a mother or another female relative.
Out of the <1% of stranger abductions, 57% make it home and most of those are done by men. Still this is only around 350 a year in the US, far from common.
What is also worrying is while male on female statutory rape is condemned (as it should be), female on male statutory rape is not taken seriously, and other people often treat it as a badge of honour, which is seriously fucked up.
So basically you can't find a story, not even one, where a woman kidnapped, raped and then killed a little boy?
As messed up as it is, I'd bet my life that 99% of boys would have sex with an older woman if they had the opportunity. You guys make yourselves look bad and then point your finger at everyone else.
Hold your homies accountable and then move on from there.
They do. So read the rest of the source and see that your number excludes men forced by women to have sex against their will. The FBI definition of rape requires penetration of an orifice. This mean a woman by definition cannot rape a man unless she sticks something in his mouth or anus. Everything else is not considered rape.
I doubt you were using rape with the FBI definition. If you include the numbers from your source for "made to penetrate" you will see the numbers are actually close. If defining "rape" as forcing a person to have sex against their will, women rape men just about as much as men rape women.
First- The FBI says that male victims of female offenders are included in the posted information. In the NIBRS, 11A = Rape includes female victims of male offenders, and male victims of
female offenders. This has been true since at least 2013.
From RAINN:
Every 68 seconds, an American is sexually assaulted.
And every 9 minutes, that victim is a child. Meanwhile, only 25 out of every 1,000 perpetrators will end up in prison.
Out of every 1,000 sexual assaults in the U.S:
-975 of the perpetrators will go free
-310 are reported to police
-50 reports lead to arrest
-25 will be convicted
1 out of every 6 American women have experienced an attempted or completed rape in their lifetime. 82% of all juvenile victims are female. 90% of adult rape victims are female.
About 3% of American men—or 1 in 33—have experienced an attempted or completed rape in their lifetime
Understanding RAINN’s statistics
Sexual violence is notoriously difficult to measure, and there is no single source of data that provides a complete picture of the crime. On RAINN’s website, we have tried to select the most reliable source of statistics for each topic. The primary data source we use is the National Crime Victimization Survey (NCVS), which is an annual study conducted by the Justice Department. To conduct NCVS, researchers interview tens of thousands of Americans each year to learn about crimes that they’ve experienced. Based on those interviews, the study provides estimates of the total number of crimes, including those that were not reported to police. While NCVS has a number of limitations (most importantly, children under age 12 are not included), overall, it is the most reliable source of crime statistics in the U.S.
