Nearly 20 percent of women in the United States have been raped at least once and one in four has been severely attacked by an intimate partner, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported on Wednesday.

Almost 80 percent of female victims were first raped before age 25 and more than half were raped by a current or former partner, according to the CDC's analysis of data from the National Intimate Partner and Sexual Violence Survey of 18,049 men and women in the United States in 2010.

The survey, which the CDC said was the first of its kind, found that one in eight female rape victims said the perpetrator was a family member.

Shouldn’t they have saved this study for the week before the Super Bowl?

Everybody pretty much agrees/knows this is bs and so is the cdc. Maybe they intend to criminalize all hetero sex. Only sex allowed will be homosexual, bestiality or a combination of group sex with beasts included. All infants sacrificed to baal. CDC will then stand for the Center for Disease Celebration.

It is silly to think it is rape if a women has been drinking unless she is passed out cold and someone takes advantage of that.I am not talking about going home with someone or vise versa and deciding in the morning that you should not have done that...to me a female that IS NOT rape it is poor judgement on the females part.

This is very similar to the BS about domestic violence that the feminazis foisted off on the general public which resulted in the heavyhanded, ridiculous domestic violence laws that we have today.

But, but, but.... in college the Femi-Nazi professors told us one out of every two men was a rapist.....

Seriously, they need to quit diluting the definition of rape.

With the definition of rape getting revised shortly by the FBI we will find out that all women have been raped.

And all men, at least all non leftie men, are rapists because of thoughts about sex.
