At present, sexual assaults are the most prevalent crimes in the US, yet
also the most underreported.
Over the last two decades, much work has been dedicated to change the
landscape of sexual assault and to empower victims of this type of crime.
But the thing is:
Despite several helpful, progressive reforms, sexual assault statistics
reflect that many crimes are still not fully addressed or understood.
Which is why:
It is important that we analyze and address the strengths and weaknesses of
the current approach with the help of the latest sexual harassment
statistics in order to understand what needs improving and where.
With that said, let’s dive right in.
Alarming Sexual Violence Statistics (Editor’s Choice)
One of the most shocking facts about sexual assault is that approximately
only 5% of sexual assault reports filed have been proven false.
82% of all juvenile sexual assault victims are female.
90% of adult rape victims are female.
41% of sexual assaults against Native Indians are committed by a stranger.
Adolescents aged 147 were by far the most likely to be sexually victimized
; nearly one in six (16.3%) was sexually victimized in the past year.
General Statistics about Sexual Assault
Although statistics on sexual assault can’t even begin to convey the
suffering of victims and their families, they can offer a glimpse into the
disturbing extent of the issue.
1. In 2019, over 652,676 women were raped.
This figure excludes non-rape sexual assaults but includes date rape
statistics; if included, data from non-rape sexual assaults would take the
figure closer to the one million mark. What’s worse, it has been rising for
the last decade at an annual rate of 2.9%, and this trend shows no sign of
decreasing.
2. Over 40% of women in the US have encountered sexual violence.
Sexual abuse, as shown by rape and sexual assault statistics, has affected
41.8% of women in the US who have been victimized by sexual violence other
than rape.
3. Nearly 80% of female sexual assault victims experience their first
assault before the age of 25.
Exactly 79.6% of female victims who have experienced one or more completed
rape did so before the age of 25.
4. Around 20% of American males have been the victim of sexual violence.
According to Rainn statistics, outside of the correctional system, most rape
victims are female. However, studies show that 21.4% of males in the US
have been the victims of sexual violence and have experienced this outside
of any prison facility.
5. A quarter of male victims of sexual assault were under 10 years of age.
According to studies, an estimated total of 28% of male victims of sexual
assault in the US will have experienced their first assault at 10 years of
age or younger.
6. Rape Statistics show that less than 20% of rapes are reported.
It is estimated that only 19% of rapes, completed or attempted, are reported
annually. This figure runs consistently across the board. The general
consensus is that rape is still considered something shameful, hence victim
reluctance.
7. Women and men with disabilities face twice the risk of sexual assault
than able-bodied individuals.
Sadly, data gathered from watchdog organizations and US sexual assault
statistics have found that disabled people were twice as likely to be
victims of sexual assault than able-bodied people. Statistics of sexual
abuse show that the majority of these heinous assaults were carried out in
care environments (both facilities and home care). Yet, they were also
reported as taking place during hospital or general practitioner sessions,
as well as in individual therapy sessions.
8. Nearly 20,000 sexual assaults were reported in the military last year.
A study on the level of sexual assault within the military from 2010
revealed sexual violence statistics that showed a figure of 3,577, of which
only a quarter took place during deployment in combat zones.
The study was repeated in 2019, and the sexual assault stats showed over 19,
000 sexual assaults had now taken place in the US military.
9. 7.2% of all children surveyed in 2019 had been victims of sexual assault.
Child sexual abuse statistics highlight the harrowing revelation that teens
aged 14 to 17 were in the highest risk category for sexual assault, with
more than one in four adolescents (27.3%) having been sexually victimized
during their lifetimes.
10. Approximately 70 women commit suicide every day in the US following an
act of sexual violence.
Women sexual assault statistics reveal some extremely disturbing facts. An
estimated 70 women commit suicide daily in the US, directly as a result of
sexual violence. Worryingly, this figure has grown by 2.87% over the last
year.
11. Sexual violence incidents, preceded by stalking, increased by 1.9% in
2019.
According to statistics and sexual harassment facts from 2019, the incidents
of stalking that led to sexual assaults have increased steadily over the
last year. What makes this figure even more alarming is the fact that
initiatives were put in place to prevent and protect victims from such
occurrences. So, governmental legislation and thinking about the issue must
be reviewed.
12. During 2019, 13% of all women in California were victims of rape.
Sexual harassment statistics reflect a large percentage of Californian women
have been reported as having been a victim to an attempted or completed
rape in 2019. Current rape statistics by state show that 13% of all
Californian women are in danger of being a victim of sexual assault.
13. Statistics show that 1 in 6 US women will be raped annually in the US.
Surveys and rape statistics by gender have found that 1 in 6 American women,
and 1 in 33 American men has experienced an attempted/completed rape as a
child or adult. This disturbing figure has been predicted to rise
exponentially over the next three years.
14. Over 1.5 million women were raped by an intimate partner in 2019.
Statistics on sexual harassment from the Department of Justice suggest that
over 1.5 million women and 834,700 men are raped and/or physically assaulted
annually by an intimate partner in the United States. This staggering
figure is both disheartening and unnerving.
Experts have created focus groups to analyze and explore these sexual
assault statistics by state in more depth.
Little Known Facts About Male Victims of Sexual Violence
According to sexual assault statistics, males are also high-risk victims of
sexual violence.
Which means that:
Sexual abuse is not limited to females, and the abuse of boys has little to
do with either the abuser’s or the victim’s sexual orientation.
Perhaps unsurprisingly:
Male rape statistics show that most perpetrators of male sexual assault are
men. These predators choose to rape both gay or straight men because rape is
an act of aggression and domination, not of sexual desire.
Contrary to popular belief:
Girls and women can most definitely be perpetrators of sexual violence
toward males, and instances of this kind are more prevalent in society than
most people realize.
In contradiction to the sweeping statement thinking of most people, male
sexual assault statistics have now proved that most males who experience
sexual assault (at any age) do not automatically go on to become sexual
abusers.
In many cases:
According to gun violence statistics, attackers can use various weapons,
physical force, or even the threat of force to gain the upper hand. Others,
according to rape victim statistics, may use blackmail or their position of
authority to threaten someone into submission.
15. Approximately 16% of males in juvenile prisons have been sexually abused.
A 2019 study by the US Center for Disease Control examined woman rape
statistics in juvenile prisons for incidents and frequency of sexual
violence. The results showed that 16% of males had been victims of sexual
abuse, whereas over 60% of males in these facilities had encountered the
threat of sexual violence.
16. In Florida alone, a staggering total of 1,477,000 men have been victim
to sexual assault.
In Florida, 20.4% of men, or 1,477,000 men, have been victimized by sexual
violence over the last decade.
17. Over 25% of male sexual assault victims will experience their first
assault before 10 years of age.
According to sexual assault statistics 2019, studies and statistical
analysis, in excess of 25% (27.8% to be exact) of male victims of sexual
assault will probably experience their first attack by age 10 or younger.
18. Nearly 40% of adult males that experience sexual violence from an
intimate partner are left with psychological scarring.
Reports and studies on US rape statistics show clearly that 39.7% of men
who have experienced sexual assault from their partner such as rape,
stalking or physical violence, are left with long term impacts such as Post-
Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and other types of psychological injury.
19. New York statistics show that 18% of all rapes in the city involved a
male victim.
According to rape statistics, extensive studies, and focus groups, 2019
involved a record high of male rape victims within the city, with a record
high figure of 18% - which is 5.7% higher than 2018.
Sexual Assault Effects on Society
20. Over 80% of sexual assaults are committed by an acquaintance.
Relatives, teachers, religious leaders, former spouses - unfortunately, the
list of possible attackers is one of people who will most often have a very
intimate relationship with the victim. Statistics on rape indicate that this
connection normally results in most rape victims shying away from reporting
such incidents due to obligatory or emotional pressures.
21. Almost 95% of child victims knew their sexual attacker.
Rape stats by RAINN show that the vast majority percentage (93.98%) of child
victims in the US in 2019 were familiar with their attacker. In almost all
of these cases, as reflected by teenage sexual assault statistics, the child
had spent a significant amount of time (10 plus hours, in one full duration
or segmented) with their attacker prior to the sexual assault taking place.
22. The rate of false rape claims in the US is well below the 10% average
mark.
Although false rape claims do happen, it is important to keep in mind that
the majority of rape claims are legitimate, as sexual assault statistics
reveal.
In fact, data collated in 2019 from false rape statistics, shows that a
combined rate of 6.9% of rape claims were false.
23. Sexual assaults cost the US billions of dollars annually.
Findings from college sexual assault statistics and other reports show that
although sexual assaults take heinous tolls on their victims and cause
terrible emotional damage, there is another cost that is rarely factored
into such tragic events - the cost on society in financial terms.
According to stats on sexual abuse, when we factor in the costs of funding
and running sexual assault services, the resulting lower educational
aspirations (a common affliction amongst adolescents who have been the
victim of child abuse), and the cost of lost earnings of victims who have
been traumatized to a point where they are unable to work, the costs on the
US annually are in excess of $450 billion. A staggering figure on paper, and
one that has, according to stats on sexual assault, been increasing yearly
by 1.8% on average.
24. 69% of rape victims in the US are women aged between 12 to 34 years old.
Sexual violence figures from 2019 were significantly higher compared to
sexual assault statistics 2018. The 12-34 age bracket has been known to
encompass the majority of rape victims in the US on an average year.
25. Transgender college students have a 5% higher rate of getting raped than
other students.
After conducting studies on sexual assault statistics by gender, US colleges
have reported a rise in sexual attacks on transgender students. College
rape statistics about transgender, genderqueer, and gender-nonconforming (
TGQN) students have shown that in 2019 an average of 23% of students were in
danger of being sexually assaulted, compared to 18% of non-TGQN students.
These stats are concerning because they are significantly higher than
college sexual assault statistics 2018, which means the problem is getting
out of control.
26. Bisexual women are more than twice as likely to victims of rape than
straight women.
Of all the women at the greatest risk from sexual assault in the US,
bisexual women are statistically in the danger zone. Sexual abuse statistics
show that 46% of bisexual women reported being a victim of sexual assault
in 2019, compared to 17% of straight women.
Furthermore, sexual assault on college campuses statistics show an
interesting correlation, which reveals that bisexual men face similar issues
, with 47% of them being victims of sexual violence, compared to 21% of
heterosexual men.
27. The majority (90%) of rape victims are female.
Findings from sexual assault reporting statistics have unsurprisingly
revealed that women make up the vast majority of rape victims. This figure
reflects rape statistics US and includes adult victims but excludes juvenile
victims, who, if included, would total 82% of all rape victims.
28. An American is sexually assaulted every 93 seconds.
Sexual assaults are on the rise throughout the whole of the US. On average,
state by state comparative analysis (including rape statistics by race data)
shows that there are approximately 325,566 victims of rape and sexual
assault (age 12 or older) in the US every year.
29. People with disabilities are twice as likely to be victims of rape and
sexual assault as those without disabilities.
Both males and females with disabilities experienced higher rates of
victimization than able-bodied males and females. Surprisingly, rape
statistics in the US show that those with a type of cognitive-functioning
disability were at higher risk of violent victimization than those with any
other type of disability.
30. Girls and women between the ages of 16 and 19 are 4x more likely than
girls and women in other age groups to be assaulted or raped.
Results gathered from numerous studies show that campus sexual assault
statistics have found patterns on the locale of victims. In general, 46% of
sexual assault victims were sleeping or performing another activity at home
when they were victimized.
Nearly 23% were traveling to and from school or work, shopping, or running
errands. Some 19% were working when they were assaulted, 9% were attending
school, and 19% were doing some other activity.
31. One out of every six American females is a victim of attempted or
completed sexual assault.
According to sexual assault facts, one out of every six American women will
most probably be the victim of an attempted or completed rape in her
lifetime. This ratio has doubled in the last five years, and analysts
predict the same to happen over the course of the next half a decade.
1 in 33 American men (about 3% of the total percentage of women sexually
assaulted) have experienced an attempted or completed rape in their lifetime
. This figure has increased by 22.4% over the last five years.
32. For every 1000 rapes in the US, 995 perpetrators will go unpunished.
Studies covering unreported sexual assault statistics show that the
overwhelming majority of perpetrators will escape punishment of any kind.
US rape stats show that too many victims are afraid to follow through with
the legalities of their claim, leading to perpetrators escaping punishment
of any form. | W***n
