That stat and even the term "rape culture" came from 1970s and '80s studies on male-on-male rape in men's prisons, and the feminists liked the term and the hyperbolic numbers and simply coopted them into their movement. (They've been called on those false stats many times, but they continue to repeat them, and the mainstream media just parrots anything the feminists say --- so silenced and powerless they are). The real stats for rape, male-on-female rape, is about 1 in 55 --- still unacceptably large, but nowhere near 1 in 5.I forget the name of the '70s feminist who asserted that rape stats needed to be exaggerated in order to "energize the movement". And that still goes on today. This girl claims to Crowder that she's been raped, and so have all her friends, but that simply cannot be taken at face value, especially given the atmosphere on campus for the last few years.Probably, most of them have not in fact been raped. But then the definition of rape is apparently expandable today to mean many different things, including being made to feel 'uncomfortable'.So we're in a weird era. And part of that is that the conservatives are the ones standing back and saying the correct things about this (which makes me gag, as a bona fide liberal) but the left is the side that's just gotten into silly season pushing the rape politics/feministic stuff way too far (and the transmania of the last few years, where there are 157 genders and they're trying to pass laws where you can go to jail for innocently using the wrong pronoun, is part of it..... "intersectional feminism" where all social movements congeal under the umbrella of feminism because Big Sister will get 'er dun fer ya).I have a conspiracy theory that the political conservatives mounted an intelligence black op to invade the political left to turn it stupid and ultimately bring it down. Probably not true, but it's a theory I like nonetheless.There are some articulate speakers who feel feminism, far from being about equality and protecting women from rape, is really a movement which epitomizes the worst of the dark side of women (which we're not supposed to even admit exists) in which the members do everything they can to keep themselves the center of attention, and of every discussion topic imaginable 24/7 no matter what. And part of that is claiming rape, political powerless and enforced silence when it isn't true at all.Like the wife endlessly bitching at home.It's neurotic, bottomless, toxic self-absorption run amok, posing as a civil rights movement, skewing history all the way.Years ago, even Gloria Steinem claimed that gay male porn was just two men acting out the male-female power dynamic of hetero sex. So even when gay men are having gay sex with each other, they're really just thinking about oppressing women.</blockquote>
