If it is true, that's probably only because women in developed countries are more likely to report having been raped, not that they're actually raped more often.
They justified it by explaining that the threat of women having power of men drives men to rape women, so the men can exert their dominance. In countries where women have set roles they don't threaten the positions of men.
I call bullshit! In a society of women of high self-esteem, rape will be reported. Elsewhise, it will not. It's just that simple and I don't care what STATISTICS claim. :whatever
