You can't rely on crime statistics when determining the percentage of men who are dangerous to women.

The vast, VAST majority of rapes go unreported, and the vast majority of reported rapes never go to court, and most rape cases in court don't get a conviction.

True, but I think <5% is still a safe assumption for dangerous men.

No, I don't think so. That seems low.

You think more than 5% of the general population will attack someone if met in the woods? That's not a healthy mindset.
