Of course you don’t need much data to prove that. You need extraordinarily little data to support your point. Everyone knows your point is perfectly valid: rape has not been eliminated. Child rape has not been eliminated. Underage pregnancy has not been eliminated. These are all problems that this data does not quantify.
You seem to think I am arguing that rape no longer exists. That is not what I am arguing. What I am arguing is that this data doesn’t actually tell us a damn thing about either rape or teenage pregnancy. From the data presented here, we cannot determine if rape is more common than theft, or rarer than cannibalism.

I guess its a super good thing that no one is talking about theft or cannibalism. Weird that you felt that making up a completely arbitrary criteria made sense as you move out all the stops to do everything you can to minimize child rape.
Why is this so important to you that you are willing to make such spurious arguments?
Ok, I’ll try again: Based on this data, please tell me how many children were pregnant from rape when this data was compiled.
Obviously, one is too many.
However, the solution for one case of child rape per year is to capture the rapist and jail them for life. Let the survivor guide us on how to help her.
The solution for 60 million cases of child rape per year is prophylactic chemical castration of all males. It is far too prevalent to leave to the criminal justice system; we must take drastic, proactive measures to end such an atrocity.
So, are we building a couple prison cells, or are we putting the drugs in the water?
This data does not give us any insight whatsoever into the scale of the problem. It provides no insight into a solution. It brings confusion to the discussion, not clarity.
Why is it so important to you that this particular data should be somehow exempt from criticism?
You are similarly empowered.
Sure, except that I didn’t think I actually need much data to prove the rape didn’t disappear in the last twenty years.

As presented, this data is meaningless garbage.

Did you have a stroke when you wrote this?

Too many? I guess I don’t spend as much time thinking about children getting raped as you.
