Self-declared gender ID is completely borking crime stats though, it's making any research into the gender division of criminality much harder.

The U.S. changed their legal definition of rape about a decade ago to:
“The penetration, no matter how slight, of the vagina or anus with any body part
or object, or
oral penetration by a sex organ of another person, without the consent of the victim.” For the first time ever, the new definition includes any gender of victim and perpetrator, not just women being raped by men.
