If I had a daughter, I'd be teaching her how to kill a man with a pencil.
i wish we didn't live in a world where that was necessary ://
So do I. I can't imagine being a parent right now.

Rape has always been a problem, it's just that now we're more open about discussing it. I HOPE this leads to less rape happening.
Of course in the US, in many states, it's now worse because not only can you still get raped, but you might have to keep the baby. Disgusting.
It's hard to tell from the data because broad strokes would say rape was at around 42.8 per 100,000 people in 1992 decreased over time to 27.1 until 2013 when the definition of rape was changed and the number jumped that year to 36.4 trending upwards to 44.8 in 2018.
So the questions to me are really, did rapes continue to decrease and reporting became more prominent from things like the me too movement which did start prior to the 2018 peak? Is there less unwarranted shame/sense of guilt felt now so more people are comfortable admitting it? Also... If there was a 9.3 jump when the definition changed, would that not mean if that one could argue 2022 would be around 30.7 by the old definition, and therefore rates have fallen 25% from 1990 till today?

Magic trick
I just now realized that they had professional scumbag, Danny 'Rapist' Masterson play the rapey douchebag in the first scene, too. Sometimes life is stranger than fiction.

Kind of like that Workaholics episode where Chris D'Elia plays a pedo.
