The USA still leads the world......when it comes to sexual assaults on women


United States

Students Protest against rape
The super power of the world is at the first position in the race of rapes. 

Males are majorly the rapist holding a proportion of 99%. Out of all the victims, 91% are females while 9% are males. 

The U.S Bureau of Justice Statistics states that 91% of rape victims are female and 9% are male, and nearly 99% of rapists are male. 

According to the National Violence Against Women Survey, 1 in 6 U.S. women and 1 in 33 U.S. men has experienced an attempted or completed rape in their lifetime. 

More than a quarter of college-age women report having experienced a rape or rape attempt since age 14. Out of all, only 16% of the total cases are reported. Outdoor rape is not common in USA rather most of the rape cases takes place inside homes.
