Typical .......why should women have to assume the major role in bearing & raising a child she does not want or might not have consented to. Do you imagine women in Canada are ignorant on the prevention of conception?? Does the male have no responsibility?? Until the men of the world can be forced to share the role - the women wanting or needing abortions should be the only judge on what her body is used for!!
"The most frequently cited research on sexual violence was conducted by
Statistics Canada in 1992, which involved a national random sample of 12,300 women (Johnson and Sacco, 1995). The research found that over one in three women had experienced a sexual assault and that only 6% of sexual assaults were reported to the police.
[64] According to Justice Institute of British Columbia, one out of every 17 women is raped, 62% of rape victims were physically injured, 9% were beaten or disfigured."
According to United Nations studies, in SAfrica, 28% to 37% of the men have committed rape and 7 to 9 of those have engaged in gang rape. Sweden has the highest rate of rape in Europe....69 rapes to 100,000 inhabitants. 1/3 of women have been sexually assaulted by the time they leave their teens.
Lesotho 88.6 rapes per l00,00 inhabitants. All Carribean countries 48% of girls reported sexual initiation to be forced.
So, don't use that "She should have known better crap". Women know about the results of sexual intercourse even adolescents.
