The number of women who are victimized is something like 1 in 3 or 1 in 5. Although I've never been the victim of sexual assault, I'm pretty sure there are several members here who have been. You need to watch what you say about subjects like this. I really hope you were just ignorant of the facts before, and aren't too stupid now to realize the error of views.
Also women aren't the only victims. Men are also raped, they're just less likely to report it.
