I was merely responding to what you said, I'm sorry if it sounded like I was commenting on your knowledge or lack of. My reply solely centred on your comment.

What you said was:

"All men at some point have been lied to or manipulated by women as well. Does that mean Men are right to not trust women?"

I'm stating here that it is not a good analogy. Men and women are lied to and manipulated on an equal basis, while rape is still predominantly committed by men against women. I acknowledge that the majority of assaults go unreported, however even studies which attempt to counter for the dark figure of crime (victimisation surveys) in rape statistics indicate this. I don't think the disparity is as great as reported crime, however I do believe there is a statistically significant disparity. This is, of course, only including sexual assaults against those over the age of consent. I would say the disparity is a lot lower when paedophilia/hebephilia is involved.

I certainly wasn't commenting on your gender, I had no idea you were male. However that's neither here nor there.

I find it interesting that you included a quote about 'knee-jerk' comments--my response to you is not a sudden, visceral reaction to what you said. Although I'm uncertain of how to state this and maintain my online anonymity, I will carefully say that this is an area that I have qualifications in, as well as several years of professional experience.
