The Brett Kavanagh quandary: One in 16 US women were forced into having sex for the first time

[Denizen]

The exact scenario of the Brett Kavanagh case.

This study found 6.5% of women aged between 18 and 44 surveyed in the past eight years were coerced by force or violence or threats into having their first vaginal sex experience.

In Brett Kavanagh's era of youth the prevalence was higher. "A previous version of the survey in 1995 found a slightly higher prevalence of forced first-time sex at 9 per cent. This research involved a younger age group of 15 to 24 year olds ..."

A survey by the US Centers For Disease Control found that for many women, their first experience of sex involved coercion

One in 16 US girls and women were forced into their first experience of sex, either physically or through other kinds of pressure.

The figure comes from an analysis of a regular national survey of health and family life carried out by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Laura Hawks of Harvard Medical School and colleagues analysed the responses from 13,000 women aged between 18 and 44 who answered the survey in the past eight years. About 6.5 per cent said that their first experience of vaginal sex with a man wasn’t voluntary. The researchers used the term “forced” for those who answered “not voluntary”.

About half of these respondents said they had been held down. About a quarter had been physically harmed and a quarter physically threatened – although there was overlap between the groups.

About half reported being verbally pressured, such as being told the relationship would end unless they had sex, and a fifth said they had been given alcohol or drugs.

Even when no physical coercion was used, the average age of women forced into sex was 15 and the average age of men was 27, says Hawks. “You’re automatically getting a picture of a huge power imbalance,” she says.

There was less of an age difference for those who first had sex voluntarily: the average age was 17 for the women and 21 for the male partner. Those forced were also poorer and had less formal education on average.

A previous version of the survey in 1995 found a slightly higher prevalence of forced first-time sex at 9 per cent. This research involved a younger age group of 15 to 24 year olds and the question was worded slightly differently. ...

The exact scenario of the Brett Kavanaugh case was some doofy, hysterical democrats got themselves a big fat hairy liar to cause such a stink it would cause his nomination to fail.

 

[Sun Devil 92]

Brett Kavangh ?

What's he got to do with it.

Wonder what the racial numbers look like

 

[Jackson]

What does this have to do with Kavanaugh??? Got over it and grow up.

 

[Osiris-ODS]

This study found 65% of women aged between 18 and 44 surveyed in the past eight years were coerced by force or violence or threats into having their first vaginal sex experience.

Ok, this is as far as I got - 65 percent??! Come on man, that is utter bullshit, and anyone who is living in the real world as opposed to the mythical land where agenda-driven surveys take place knows that's bullshit.

 

[BuckToothMoron]

A recent New York Times survey - 99.9 % of women would prefer to have their vagina fillEDwith cement and allowed to set rather than be forced to have sex with DENIZEN. 00.1 % would pick death.

And Ballsy Ford got about $1 million from a GOFUNDME slush fund set up for her so the DemonRATS could pay her off WITHOUT having a corruption investigation started!....The things they come up with to skirt the law!

It says 6.5%, not 65%.

1 in 16 isn't 65%.

Exactly.

If us peons tried anything near the crap these people pull, they'd be fitting us with ball and chain and flinging us into the rock breaking dungeon for about 47 years.

I suspect 100% of the skanks of this ilk gave it up willingly and were not satisfied with one.

 

[Blackrook]

The Democrats will go to hell for what they did to Brett Kavenaugh.

Unless they repent.

I hope they don't.
