You think admitting its mainly men who do this is blinkered campaigning and soapboxing? Really?

I would say the debate and discussion on this topic should really be WHY is it mainly men who do this. You said just before it might have something to do with strength and such. Well yes it might, thats probably a part of it, because men CAN just do what they like to women. I doubt thats the only reason though.

If there was a changearound tomorrow and suddenly women were stronger than men, I really do not think we would suddenly have a switcharound in offending rates and suddenly women would be sexually assaulting men in droves. I don't think its solely down to strength.
