I'm always deeply skeptical of these "huge numbers of women raped" stories.  A while back they were pushing the line that 1/3 of college women had been sexually assaulted.  Turns out they included "unwelcome sexual advances" in that category.

Yes that is why I wanted to be clear on the definition.  If they only include actual acts of penetration then I can get on board.

Anyway, has anyone ever seen Tape?  It's a great movie.  One-scene film.  Richard Linklater adapting a stage play, iirc.

Ok what are you getting all hyperbolic and insane about now?  I just want a clear definition of what we are talking about when giving out stats like that.

I find it disgusting that you would get on board with forcible penetration. I thought you had higher moral standards.

:lol:

Oh I meant onboard with accepting the stats on rape not onboard with forcible penetration. :blush:

They are just asking for it unless they rig boarding-netting  :pirate

If that 20% includes women who had sex while they were drunk or stoned that's not a real shocker.  Well, maybe a shocker that it's not much higher.

I assume it must mean incapably drunk, otherwise just about every adult in Britain has been raped at some time or another  :hmm:

What if a woman is so smitten by you that she's essentially unable to think clearly, and give informed consent?  Is it still rape?  :unsure:

Stop worrying about things that are never gonna happen.  :P
