This will be interesting I think

Thanks for the detailed drill down. Sorry to cut to my point so quickly, but I see a few bits of propaganda floating around...

There is no proof (to my knowledge) that

"rape is massively under-reported and the actual figure will be at least double this"

Now, apparently... 1 in 4 women are raped

and let's assume they're ALL legitimate for the sake of argument. If that is so, surely it means by your claims that now , at least 1 in 2 women - 50% of women - have been raped!

By Goodness!

Or, have I misunderstood?

You may want to read through the thread a bit to get the full points being made. The general gist of this part is the member kmx1974 gave a very detailed methodology to prove that women have it worse™. and in response, well... see the quote.

Will kmx1974 acknowledge the "1 in 4 women are raped" isn't very accurate.... will he acknowledge that 1 in 2 is a ridiculous figure, and thus his claim (see underline section in above quote) cannot be substantiated whatsoever... or, will he insist that 1 in 2 women will be raped?

Tune in...

this rebel missed a whole digit in the false alegation percentage.

"Roughly 3 to 4 percent of rape allegations are false, I'm going to use the 4 percent figure to avoid allegations of under-representing."
What a load of BS. Which hole did they pull this figure from? The figure is more like 43% or higher.

Reading this thread now, Page 4 so far. Marx is hilarious. Marx response outside the quote box (italic).

Fully agreed! However, my concern is why is a man's consumption never accounted?
Court - "How much did you drink, miss?"
Miss - "Nine pints."
Court - "And you sir, you drank how much?"
Sir - "Eleven pints."
Court - "Right, well, clearly you sir were quite sober, while Miss was clearly incapable of making her own decisions... even though she acknowledges saying "YES" to you, we see that she was drunk and clearly incapable of making that decision. You however, were obviously sober with your eleven pints and are now a rapist!!!!"
Sir - "Bu...bu... She was practically throwing herself on me, dammit and she DID say "YES" repeatedly... it was only the next day she said she'd regretted it as her husband would be upset!!!"
Court - "Not good enuff, lad! You know women are too weak to take responsibility for their actions after a whiff of alcohol - feminists tell us so. Now that might *sound* misognyist - but it isn't... oh no!"

Careful... that's like saying "An accused man should be treated as innocent until proven guilty" - something feminists don't like the idea of.

Uh, the quote boxes didn't show up. Can someone fix that for me?

Two links for you about the MD case.

“[So] are you going to let me hit it?” he said, according to police. “I don’t want to rape you.”
The victim testified in Montgomery County court that she agreed to sex “as long as he stops when I tell him to.” As he(Baby) began, she told him to stop because he was hurting her, but he kept going for five or 10 seconds, she said.
Baby denied any wrongdoing but was convicted of first-degree rape and other crimes and sentenced to 15 years in prison, with all but five suspended.

That's odd - over the other forum, they said he pleaded guilty to rape (unless I'm getting crossed wires....)
