Personal experiences doesn't alter statistical relevance, (as much as you'd
like it to) but it is very easy to generate a phony statistic by repeating a
lie long enough, or misconstruing data. I saw some stats that showed
somewhere between 3 and 5 % of men had been sexually assualted AND that 1 in
6 had occurred prior to the age of 16........it is easy to see how that
might have become what the OP posted, hence my 'feeling' If you have
information differently, please post it. Next time you might want to think
a little more before trying to flame.

Right. People's personal experiences are not relevent to discussions, but
your
"feelings" are.
