    Fair. I should have said that the cited data provides no data quantifying the prevalence of child rape. From the cited data, you cannot tell me if it was derived from 60 cases or 60 million. From that data, you cannot tell me the scale of the problem. From that data, you cannot tell me how it stacks up to, say, murder, or cannibalism.

    I can say that whatever it was in the early 1990’s, it is far better now.

      Just because it’s better now doesn’t mean it’s perfect.

      Women and girls still get raped and assaulted every day.

        Again, this data sucks. From this data we have no idea whether your claim is true. We all know your claim to be true and valid, but that conclusion does not arise from this particular data. This data is terrible.
