There's a big difference between saying that violent/sexual crimes committed by women are underreported and claiming that the gap in reporting would come anywhere close to making up the difference in rates of commission of these crimes between men and women, the former is verifiably true and the latter is extremely not verifiable and almost certainly not true

I absolutely believe the gap is virtually none-existent. If taken into account how basically no sexual assault is reported for men because nobody takes them seriously, and how even just looking at a woman can already be considered sexual assault, we have a monumental disparity in our society.

Giving any credence to statistics before this is solved compounds certain issues that shouldn't exist, and aids those with ulterior motives. If you adhere to these like you seem to, you're part of the problem.

"Just looking at a woman can be called sexual assault" is a ridiculous assertion, legally inaccurate and indicative that you're either stupid or lying

Then you haven't been paying attention.
