I would venture to say that what Akin meant with the qualifying "legitimate" term was violent or assault rape. "Date rape" and statutory rapes are all lumped in with the general statistics. Refined down to real, violent, non consensual rape and he's right...

Akin meant rape rape. If he had used Goldie Whoopberg’s articulation he’d have been better off.

Rape is Rape, period.

You’re parsing words like Slick Willie did...
