I find it very hard to believe "it's the phones", when 1 in every 8 teen girls reports being a victim of rape.[1] > Of note: 18% of teen girls said they had experienced some form of sexual violence in the past year, compared to only 5% of teen boys. > The rate of teen girls who have experienced sexual violence has increased by 20% since 2017, when the CDC first started tracking the measure, per ABC News. "The percentage of male students who experienced sexual violence by anyone did not change," the report stated. Nearly 15% of teen girls said they had ever been forced to have sex, a 27% jump from 2019 and the first increase since the CDC began tracking the metric, per the Washington Post. 4% of teen boys said they had ever been forced to have sex, with no increase reported.
