1·9 days agoCheck out rainn.org
Those numbers get tracked regardless because many rape victims do not report to police.
Edit:
This page in particular you might find interesting.

352·9 days agoAs part of her sentencing, Roberts must register as a sex offender and pay $5,000 in fines, and will have to undergo regular drug screenings, in addition to psychotropic and psychological therapy following her release, KPLC reported.The outlet added that Roberts also received two five-year suspended sentences, to be served concurrently unless she violates parole.
Addressing the court on Tuesday, Roberts said: “I blame myself then, I blame myself today, and I will blame myself for the rest of my life … I let a lot of people down, and I am the only person responsible for that,” KPLC reports.
She also addressed the victim’s family during her sentencing, saying: “To the [victim’s] family, I am sorry. I can’t give back the high school days… I can’t take away the embarrassment that so many mean people on the internet have put them through.”
Thank fuck she has to register as a sex offender even if her sentence is way too low for comfort.
I can’t believe the audacity of blaming THE INTERNET for what the rape did to her victim.

17·9 days agoThey already get included in some stats about rape and sexual assault.
Do you think reporting to the police is the only way people find out about rape?

17·9 days agoI was just expanding on the topic and engaging in conversation.
Sorry I didn’t put the disclaimer that men accused of rape are much bigger victims than actual rape victims. /s

15·9 days agoStatistics on rape and sexual assault should include that information, yes.
There are victims more willing to be honest about what has happened to them in polls and surveys than reporting to the police.
Just because a victim of rape did not report it to the police does not mean the rape didn’t happen. I’m not suggesting numbers be fudged or made up.
I’ve said nothing on punishing people who have not been convicted in a court of law.

19·9 days agoStats on rape and sexual assault should include it, not stats on jail time for offenders.
None of you have looked into stats on rape and sexual assault before. It’s almost always included in some way because reporting of rape is very low.

18·9 days agoThat’s a lot of words I didn’t say that you just put in my mouth.
My point is that the number of rapists is much higher than the reported stats will have you believe. Rape and sexual assaults don’t get reported nearly as often as other types of crime.

Whines about being banned.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•We try to teach our kids to be honest and not to lie, but I don't think we'd like what we'd get if children were always completely honest.
51·9 days agoBecause it’s embarrassing that no one in her life cares enough about her to gift her something she actually wants?
I wouldn’t do it myself, but I can understand why someone would.

15·9 days agoI know you’re trying to lead me down the path of crying for men accused of rape, but I don’t care.
Keep defending rapists that thrive in the dark.

19·9 days agoStats on rape and sexual assault should include instances where the perpetrator doesn’t see any jail time because the rape and sexual assault still happens.
Just because a victim doesn’t report does not mean that the perpetrator is innocent.

15·9 days agoNot if you include the men who don’t serve any time at all even though they committed the crime.
There’s way more perpetrators that haven’t done any time at all than perpetrators who have served time for rape.

22·9 days agoThis is true regardless of the genders involved. Male rapists petition the court for visitation and child support as well.

I’m bisexual so I really only feel qualified to assert that definition.
I believe that pansexuals are attracted despite gender. I dunno, I can’t tell the difference between the two. I’m just old and bisexual feels like it fits better for me.
