Come on, chip. Try to keep up. It was not readily available. Therefore, rates of birth control use now have no bearing on rape stats through history.
Quote:i know quite a few who are taking it.
Duh.
Quote:i'm sick of doing all this research and in the end you'll say something like "well back then it wasn't that there was less rape but that it was reported less." there's nothing i can bring to you to convince you so i'm not going to.
All this research? What the hell? You haven't done an ounce of research. I have not seen a single quote from a reliable source. You have not even mentioned a reliable source. You are literally making this up as you go. There is something you can bring to convince me . . . evidence.
That was not my argument, chip. I said that would have to be taken into account even if you had statistics, which you do not. Numbers, chip. We are talking about numbers. If all you have is "women got married to the men they fucked," you have nothing.
