As many as 200,000 women use a gun every year to defend themselves against sexual abuse. Kleck and Gertz, "Armed Resistance to Crime," at 185.

Nationwide. In 1979, the Carter Justice Department found that of more than 32,000 attempted rapes, 32% were actually committed. But when a woman was armed with a gun or knife, only 3% of the attempted rapes were actually successful.
