I find 1 in 5 over a lifetime pretty believable, especially if you include molestation.

@jaspergregory Multiply by 4 years, that's 2.4%. Multiply by 15 instead (early teens to late 20s) and bump it up a bit, 10%. -
@jaspergregory Now consider that the rate's fallen by almost 50% since the early 90s; someone our age might approach 20% lifetime risk. -
@jaspergregory nb: in the new DoJ study, completed rapes are 33% of the total for college students, 40% for non-college. -
@jaspergregory Dunno if it's deliberate or laziness that so many commenters conflate rape w/total sexual assault, but important to separate.
