Yah no one gives it a public go ahead. But some people have had a terrible time getting it prosecuted. They build laws around it, but when it comes to the actual enforcement....That's when it's tough.

Go to the NOW website and find out how many countries still accept rape as a social norm. Seems to be the same countries that are still trying to abolish FGM. Do some homework on it, and get back to me.

For example: In Africa it was ok to abduct and rape a girl to ask for her hand in marriage. Her parents then had to give consent. So people went down there over a specific case, to get it prosecuted....

I don't expect you guys to hang out on the NOW website or really care about the issues. Just do some homework.

Hell go to the Phillippines and ask how many have been raped. They will have no idea wtf you are talking about. For some of them:It's their job.

I don't care for your statistics in a world full of vast cultural differences.
