I am all for modesty but I don’t think statistics bear out the notion that the less modestly dressed get raped more often.

I’m not aware of any stats on dress and attractiveness, but 80% of raped females are under age 30, and age 12 to 34 are supposed to be the risk years, which seems to indicate a selection based on sexual desirability.

“I am all for modesty but I don’t think statistics bear out the notion that the less modestly dressed get raped more often.”

When were such statistics ever collected—that is, by honest persons who were more interested in finding the truth than in supporting their preconceptions?

I’d be astounded if they had ever been collected.

The FBI used to publish statistics showing how many sex crimes against children were homosexual in nature; I haven’t been able to find that statistic in years.

The only recent study I trust is the one which found that over 99% of studies are crap.
