By now you've likely heard plenty of feminists talk about the West's rape culture (see Lena Dunham: 1 in 4 Women Will be Raped. Debunking the Myth). They claim it's a common problem in the USA. So on that note, Harvard did some researching themselves to find the truth. Here's what they found...

Sexual harassment is rife in the U.S., with 87 percent of young women in the U.S. having experienced it, according to a new report from the Harvard Graduate School of Education.

Among the 18 to 25-year-old women surveyed the vast majority had been sexually harassed, with 41 percent saying a stranger had touched them without permission.

The study lays bare the misogyny young women face in their daily lives, as well as the ignorance among young people about what sexual harassment is.

So an overwhelming majority of young gals are being faced with sexual harassment, according to this study. Horrible. But then the very same study goes on to say that most young people are ignorant as to what sexual harassment really is. I know what you're thinking; if they're unclear on what sexual harassment truly is, how can they know they've experienced it? Good question. The study goes into detail here...

In our national survey of 18 to 25-year-olds, 87% of women reported having experienced at least one of the following during their lifetime: being catcalled (55%), touched without permission by a stranger (41%), insulted with sexualized words (e.g., slut, bitch, ho) by a man (42%), having a stranger say something sexual to them (52%), and having a stranger tell them they were "hot" (61%).

Okay, firstly, being called hot isn't sexual harassment. It's a compliment. Can it be unwarranted? Sure. Still not harassment in and of itself though. Also, I'm not entirely convinced the types of people who fill out surveys about sexual harassment for fun are the types of people being called "hot." Nice try, ladies.

But more importantly, the study never goes into detail regarding what constitutes these terms. A stranger saying "Hi!" in passing could be considered cat calling. An accidental brush of elbows on the subway could be considered being touched without permission by a stranger. These are entirely vague phrases which have entirely different meanings to everyone. Yet this study makes no attempt to define them. Interesting...

There are too many variables at play here to take this study at face value. Not only does it not account for the loose terminology, but it also ignores the possibility of loose-lipped lying liars who cry rape for funsies (see Students Accused of Rape Suspended, Lose Scholarships. Except the 'Victim'? Yeah, She Lied... and JUSTICE? College Withholds Degree of Student ACQUITTED of Rape...).

The worst part of all this? To confront these researchers and to question the accuracy of these studies is to promote RAPE CULTURE! No, seriously. See Singer Lily Allen Sues Tommy Robinson. For Daring to Ask for Facts of Rape Case... Questioning the facts purported by feminists is a one-way ticket to actual harassment from raving feminist implings. You know, because accuracy is "problematic."

Speaking of which...
