@SenGillibrand Not an accurate statistic; based on poorly-administered surveys & broad definitions of "rape." Realistic number is ~1 in 27. -
@almdean can you source that number or point me to a site that goes through these studies? -
@TurboBorg Sure here's a good one. Low response rate and broad survey questions are primary culprits. http://time.com/3633903/campus-rape-1-in-5-sexual-assault-setting-record-straight/ …

@SenGillibrand Correction: One unrepeatable study showed 20% of responders said they experienced some level of unwanted sexual contact. -
@iMattBrooks@SenGillibrand unwanted does not mean non consensual! Also study very flawed.

@SenGillibrand I support that you stop the barbaric organ harvesting and murder of babies. What kind of a mother could you be? -
@5OKid "Babies"? Nothing says "family values" like raising kids you don't want because your fake god told you to! -
@almdean I hope people like you find GOD. I'm sure your family will help you. - 1 more reply
