I would consider a young woman to be capable of breaking off a session of heavy petting if she had reason to resist coitus. Why should I assume that the woman is less competent to make a choice in this circumstance? The only position I agreed to earlier was that unwanted desire might be stimulated in one or both parties. I did not agree to any idea of irresistible impulse.

The report stated that only 4 to 8 percent ever make the report. Please bear in mind that this is one of the bugaboos of this kind of reporting--interest groups always say that their numbers are small because people don't report. Do you really believe that more than ten percent of the population is gay? How many people who answer surveys really don't believe in God? Who knows? How much, if at all, should we adjust the census results? How can you estimate those who don't report if they don't report? The source you cited was obviously an advocate. I suggest you take that figure with a grain of salt.
