| SpokenTruth said: And this is why people don't report 80% of sexual assaults. Someone goes through one of the most traumatic events possible and they get met with "I'm skeptical you were assaulted. You're probably lying". So they feel violated twice. Nice. |
Seriously? You make it sound like the vast majority of sexual assaults are brutal rapes. That's not true. Most sexual assaults that come up in surveys (such as the one that reports that 1 in 5 women, and 1 in 6 men experience sexual assault in their lifetime) are things like someone trying to kiss you without you wanting it, or being touched in a way you don't want to be touched, or having any type of sexual expereince, while under the influence of drugs or alcohol regardless of the sobriety of the partner, and regardless of whether you thought it was consensual.
Example: this is an unreported sexual assault that happened just last night:

As that woman is partaking in a sexual assault survey and is if anyone has ever tried to kiss her without her consent, and if she's honest, she'd have to answer yes. She's statistically a sexual assault victim who didn't report the crime.
