So it’s your contention that every report of rape is a case of an actual rape occurring and there are no false reports of rape whatsoever?

Hell no, no one is that naive...
So you've got two categories yourself. A "legitimate" rape and an "illegitimate" rape.

...the point is he categorized rape...
Just like you did!

...legitimate =illegitimate.
Where did he "equate", which is what your "equal sign" means, legitimate rape to be the same as an illegitimate, or false report of, rape?

This?
It seems to me, first of all, from what I understand from doctors, that’s really rare. If it’s a legitimate rape, the female body has ways to try to shut that whole thing down.

Coming to a conclusion such as yours from that statement is one hell of a reach!

You're creating an issue where none exists.

“legitimate rape to be the same as an illegitimate”

Look he used the word not me.

If you state something is legitimate, it means you have categorized it. If something is legitimate, ergo something else has to be illegitimate. Words have meanings.

If there are legitimate rapes, then there has to be illegitimate rapes. It goes hand in hand, its called deductive reasoning.
