    Do we need to start throwing out the stats for how many rapist are men compared to women?

    Spoiler alert, most rapist are men and it’s not even close.

      Highly unreported numbers when it comes to female rapists, so your numbers might be skewed

        Highly unreported numbers for male rapists too, especially since most male victims were raped by men.

          but those are likely to be repeat offenders, so i’m not actually sure that how that would effect it.

          The raw number of rapes will go up, but rapists will probably rise quite a bit less.

          Statistics is hard >:(
