Thanks for the response.

42% sounds a little high to me. I would lean more to somewhere between 20% and 30%, but must admit that’s based on little more than instinct.

I think the most honest thing to say is that probably 60% of reports of rape are entirely accurate. A rape occurred, though not necessarily by the person accused.

Perhaps 20% are indisputably false, with no rape occurring.

With the remaining 20% being impossible to determine one way or the other.

YMMV

I’ve never quite understood why liberals consider conservatives to be apologists for rape, when I’m cheerfully in favor of capital punishment for actual rapists.

It was liberals that rescinded the death penalty for actual rape. Conservatives get blamed for not accepting the wacka-doodle definitions of rape advocated by radical feminists.
