I'm in SA, rape is a serious issue, most people i encounter have been raped multiple times but the most common thing is that family members do not punish the offender if it is family or close family friend. they make the woman suffer & blame them for not preventing the rape. its horrible

The latest UN report on sexxual violence:

Interesting; Sweden is at number 2 in the world, only "beaten" by LESOTHO !

I wonder why that is ? Did all Swedes just turn raving mad over the past 20 years, or could it have something to do with problems assimilating immigrants and refugees ?

The latest final figures from the Swedish official statistics are 64 REPORTED rapes per 100,000. Meaning it would be at number 27 in this list with 0.064 per 1000 inhabitants.

The figures for year 2000 is at 0.023 per 1000 inhabitants though.

This can be seen as success in Sweden on gettings rapes reported and there are alot of other sources of information which indicates that the rate of occured rapes is roughly the same. Obviously these kind of explanations should be rather obvious when it comes to the list published here (it clearly extremely incorrect in actual commited rapes).

Just a note that in the case of rape, one should never suppose it has much to do with the religion or in fact often the penalties, the mass difference is actually in the reporting rate. In reply to Mahfuz - the fact that in many countries, particually in the middle east, though definatly not only there, you are shaming your family by acknowledging rape, particularily since that means you are no longer virginal. I beleive they did a study of it in India as well, in which the true statistics were much higher than the reported ones.
Nelida
25th August 2010
@Mahfuz:
You’re kidding, right?
Women in Muslim countries can be executed for loving the wrong person, being homosexual, dressing “provocatively” and they can be executed for being raped as well. Considering this, it is logical that women do not report rapes that often because they fear the reaction of the society and family.
And let’s do not forget marital rape which is nearly a peccadillo in Muslim countries.
Amy+Becker
24th August 2010
Mahfuz If every nation executed these males as Kathy has said, there would be few rapes every where but just as Kathy also stated, I do think the male population would be reduced by at least 10% but I do agree with her also that we can get along very well without these type of males
Mahfuz
23rd August 2010
Most of the countries with higher rape incidence are Christian-dominated. The first Muslim state on this list is Malaysia ranking 38th. So, Muslim nations offer a comparatively safer living environment for women.
Kathy
22nd August 2010
Abdul your post about two Saudi policemen were executed for raping a girl is a perfect example of how the numbers of rape would drop greatly if they would only execute all the males who do this. I think society could withstand the drop in the male population to make it safe for all women and chidren.
Abdul
21st August 2010
@ Ervin,

the low rape/capita rate in Saudi is mainly due to the capital punishment and strict laws in rape cases in KSA. Here's an example, two Saudi policemen were executed for raping a girl

Not to choose sides on the whole economic issue or anything, but I wanted to interject that most 3rd world countries have limited law enforcement, so parties would be less likely to report rape, or have anyone to report it to. Or even, when it comes down to it, know that it can be reported. Again, not saying right or wrong to either side, just pointing out another aspect.
JJThompson
4th August 2010
In response to Bastin, why are you connecting/corrilating rape to poverty? Does being poor make someone want to rape more? Rape is generally an act of power, for examnple when used in war, which SOME 3rd world nations experience more than 1st world. 1st world nations have some of the most "meaningless" brutal crimes. For example, serial killers are basically a USA phenomenae. Before assuming that poverty or development is linked to crime generically, think about the type of crime and the motivation (if any) behind it.

I expect 3rd world countries only at first top 20 on the rape chart yet, I found the most developed nations like Australia, Canada, and USA within this rank.Why? when there is lowest or no poverty at this developed worlds.

Australias rape rate is high because of the aboriginal population, the aboriginal communities in Australia have very high levels of violent crime, murder rates assault rates rape rates attempted murder rates manslaughter rates suicide rates and child abuse rates are very high and are among the highest in the world and the most violent place in the world outside of war was also once in Australia aswell to, Palm Island an island off North Queensland which has a large aboriginal population was once ranked the most violent place in the world outside of war.
holepigeon
21st July 2010
If France is high on the list (.15), it's because rape is mercilessly tracked down, it is a national priority, to the point that when a criminal is convicted, he can be more heavily sentenced if it is for rape (especially if it is a male on female rape and if the female is a minor, the courts and the public are absolutely merciless, talk French Puritanical tradition). Some other countries, I surmise, have lower rape statistics because police & justice catch a smaller proportion of rapists, or the victims don't report as systematically as in France.
Kathy
18th July 2010
If a male rapes a woman and is then executed for doing so, he will not be able to rape anyone else. I am not suggesting he be executed based only upon someone's word as I think there should be evidence he did rape her and that it was forced. Rape is not as much about sex as it is about control so Verner, you do have a point about more women will be killed if the authorities executed rapist so perhaps when a woman kills her attacker, once it is clear he was attacker her, the case should be closed. I personally believe a dead male would be far better than having a woman be forcibly raped. (I would prefer the method the woman in Sudden Impact used to kill her sisters rapist. She shot the offending parts and then waited a moment or two than shot him in the head .

Perhaps we should start teaching males in grade school who the real superior gender is so they can learn to respect girls and women more.
When we consider all violent crime it is usually a male thing. 90% of all violent crime is committed by males and oddly enough, other males are their usually victims. If you are looking for the person who has committed a violent crime, start looking for someone with testicles.

TE: 'Why count all sexual assault in some countries and only rape in others?'

In Canada, there are no 'rapes' only sexual assaults. You cannot be charged with 'rape' in Canada, which is why they included all sexual assaults from that country.

It just proves that you can twist statistics to get any result you want. Why count all sexual assault in some countries and only rape in others? If you seperated the rapes from the sexual assaults Australia would be way down the list. Afterall the USA has a homicide rate 4 1/2 times our own. Why would statistics on rape be any different?

@Zaki Adam

What you need to realize is that these are the rates of REPORTED rapes, not actual occurrences. Saudi Arabia has Shariah law, and as a result there have been many cases of women reporting rape to the police and then being imprisoned for the crime of being raped and not calling for help, while the true criminals walked free. There fore most women simply know not to report rape anymore.
Ervin
2nd July 2010
@Zaki Adam

Understand that these are all REPORTED rapes per capita. According to Saudi Arabian law, the victim is the one who is at fault for not calling for help, therefore nobody ever reports rape.

There have been numerous cases of women reporting rape in Saudi Arabia and then going to prison for getting raped. Now they just know not to tell anybody.

It seems you have to live here and have been affected by it to believe the stats about South African crime. I'd love to see a survey and find who living in South Afria has not had a family member raped/murdered or both. It is not mostly black on black and even if it were- what difference would it make? We are all affected in this beautiful land. Crime is crime!
Kathy
9th June 2010
From reading the posts by Anmol and Matt, it is clear to see that if all nations executed rapist after their first rape, the male population would decrease by at least 10% but it would make it a lot safer for women and children. We talk about an eye for an eye but in the case of rape, these males would have to give up their testicles. If more males lost them after raping a woman or child, I think the number of rapes would drop to almost none. It would be most effective if this were done in public and perhaps having as many women involved with removing them as possible. Nothing would scare a male more than a "ball busting" woman especially if it was literal. If it made the world safe for all women and children, would it not be worth it?

Matt
2nd June 2010
Dan: their placing on the list doesn't necessarily reflect that Islamic societies are any safer for women. The above rankings are all dependent on the reported statistics of the nations in question, and many Muslim countries have a very strict definition of rape that doesn't include forced sex in marriage or child brides, for example. As well as that, many women in Muslim theocracies don't report rape as they are frequently punished along with or instead of the perpetrator.
anmol
2nd June 2010
I live in Australia and there is absolutely no way that we are third for highest rapes per capita. South Africa is a country that looks good but it does have a high crime rate. India is a country where hundreds of women are raped evry day. And approximately 98% of rapes are not reported. Ive been to India and some of the women there have a horrible story to tell.

Carl Muller, you obviously don't have many females in your family, or you have lived an extremely sheltered life. Most of the crime in South Africa is not Black-on-black crime, and you know that very well. South Africa is top of the Rapes list, second with murders, and second with homicides, face it, accept it, and live with it. If you want to make a difference, then please do so at the next election, do so by supporting your neighbourhood watch, do so by objecting to crime in your country. Trying to white wash South Africa as a "not such a criminal country" on comment boards will not change the reality.

Executing rapists will not solve the problem Kathy. You can kill rapists day after day and never get to the root of why this horrible crime occurs. It is a quick fix to give people brief satisfaction that the problem has gone until the next rape occurs. That is not to say that rapists should not be punished; of course they should, after all rape is one of the worst crimes a human being can commit. But this does still not take away from the fact that we are not addressing the issue, much like many other problems in society.
Kathy
17th April 2010
Rape is almost 100% a male activity. If we executed every rapist or child molester, the number of rapes would drop but then the male population would drop by at least 10% in most nations. I have no problem with that, We can get along just fine without males like that.
Paul
12th April 2010
Please click on the "per capita" button, too many of the commentators seem to be misled. No, the European countries are not the ones with the biggest rape rate. Besides, there are cultures in which certain acts would not be called "rape" even though they would be very well within the western definition of the assault.
MaBi

I wonder why Sweden typically is presented on the "total" numbers, but not on the "per capita". Sweden has among the highest amount of rapes, murder etc of all industrilized countried but the statistics seems to have been removed.
Jar

Robby, the australian nationals are the overwhemingly majority of the australian resident population, therefore most sexual crimes are committed by the. However the issue is the pro-capita crime rate of a population: if the "visitors" are 10% but make 40% rapes (hypothesis) and australian nationals make the other 60% despite being the 90% of the population, then there's a big disproportion.

Why would rapes be reported "per capita"? That's like reporting prostate cancer rates per capita, when in fact, in both cases the statistic by definition applies to a specific portion of the population. I doubt these figures include rape of males, because it is far less common or reported than rape of females. Thus, South Africa's actual rate is more like 2.4 per 1000, by virtue of the fact that females make up about half of the population.
replica
5th March 2010
This survey depended on submissions per country. They had different criteria/definitions for 'rape'. With Australia and Canada, it includes all forms of sexual assault. With other countries, it's probably more specific. For instance, there were 19781 sex assault cases in Australia in 2007. Total here (1999) is 15630. Adjusted for population increase would be a little over 17000. More cases are probably being reported as time goes on. NationMaster is wrong for cross-comparing these stats. They have little relevance to one another.

For those disagreeing with the numbers - there is a explanation at the bottom that these stats reflect what Authorities record Not neccesarily actualities in Rapes & Assaults. Obviously there is a big discrepancy for crime that is based on instilled fear by the perpretator, disrespect by the public, disbelief by the public of the victims, a labyrinth of any court system for a victim to get Justice done.
This is a crime which still too too many persons, especially males, attempt to pooh poo it's direness, it's horror & even it's happening! When Good Men start satnding up For Vicitms, standing up against sexual bullies, then We'll start getting some real statistics to impress others with.

These stats are calling every "sexual assault" in Canada a "rape". In Canada, a "sexual assault" could be something as minor as an unwelcome touch on a woman's bottom.

Lies, Damn Lies, and Statistics

When last were these stats updated, they should included the 80% of rapes not reported in South Africa, it will then be a true reflection of this barbaric country

I think we need to look a little differently into these issues. I dont really believe that the crime rate should be higher in 3rd world countries. Why dont we open our eyes to see that it is really lower. You may be living in a developed country, but that does not mean your ethics are better than those in the 3rd world. It is awful to think you are "good" because you live in a developed country and others are "bad" because they are in a 3rd world country.

"DEFINITION: Total recorded rapes. Crime statistics are often better indicators of prevalence of law enforcement and willingness to report crime, than actual prevalence. Per capita figures expressed per 1,000 population."
They are taking about reported rapes

Chris to answer your question, Third world Countries such as the ones you mentioned Im sure have higher counts of rape but the Lack Any Kind of organized Government and lack any kind of Organized Criminal Justice sytem. They Don't Have the resource to carry out such statistical surveys and Many of those third world countries don't care. However most of the Countries Listed Above DO have Such Resources and report their findings as such.

Why do the totals come from a 2002 UN report and the per capita come from a 1998-2000 UN report? You can't just extrapolate from population size from the 2002 report? How can you people seriously consider yourselves serious statiticians?

This page needs to be changed to REPORTED rapes per capita.

These statistics are terrible. Every other source i can find says that the united states has a higher rape rate in the first world. If this is wrong i bet all the other stats are wrong aswell. Also the homicide rate stats are wrong
