TL;DR - Laura Bates & Hay Levels Don't Understand Rape

NOTE: At around 5:00 we start to analyze her claims that 400,000 women are the victims of 'sexual assault', the actual crime figures indicate 400,000 women are the victim of 'sexual offense'. While the number is vaguely honest it misrepresents 'sexual offense' as 'sexual assault'. The two are not the same. Examples of sexual offenses that are not assault (will vary by region): Indecent exposure, public nudity, incest, lewd and lascivious behaviour, producing/owning child pornography etc.

Rape and sexual assault are abhorrent crimes that already happen too frequently in society, do we really need people artificially inflating the numbers to make the problem seem worse than it already is?
