That's because most men are heterosexual.

However, gay men (who account for a very tiny percentage of the population) account for a very disproportionate number of cases of sex abuse directed against underage males.

You have to analyze the raw data against the proportions of these individuals in society. If only 1% of the population commits 30% of a crime (this is just an example - I haven't looked up the actual stats, if they even exist) , and 99% commits the other 70%, you have a raw number of the 99% committing more crime. But when you analyze it, the 1% has a much higher incidence.

I wonder how many times we'll have to repeat these truths before the lies stop being repeated?

I'm feeling a real kinship to that Sissyphus guy!

Good point.
But you are also arguing from disputed stats. Conservative estimates of homosexuality sit at 1% give or take, while others tend to lean towards ten percent or more. And that's just stats taken years ago, while much of the gay population was still in the closet, and not willing to be counted.

A depressing fact--I have so met many women in my life who have been accosted or molested as children and young teens, it's saddening. I believe the stats are more than fifty percent of women have experienced some form of sexual assault in there lives. (again these stats likely have an agenda attatched, but they're all I have)
