You appear to be referring to Gisele Pelicot. From an article on the crimes:
> Dominique Pelicot, 71, a retired electrician, has admitted to orchestrating multiple rapes of Gisèle Pelicot, 72, offering her to a steady stream of men he met in an online chatroom

So you’re going from
>Man finds dozens of rapists online
to
>At least 20% of men would commit rape if they didn’t fear getting caught
Do you understand that there are millions of men with internet access in France?
The claim that 20% or more of men are closet rapists is vicious hate speech. You should be ashamed of yourself.
- zevon 2y agoNobody claimed what you claim they claimed - as I suspect you know full well. The relevant section in the original report is called "Sensitivity, anger and misogynistic beliefs" (beliefs, not behaviours) and cites a few sources: "Speckhard et al. (2021) found that 13.6% of incels reported some willingness to rape if they could get away with it, compared to respective samples of ~35%, ~20–25%, ~19% and ~30% of men in the general population (Malamuth, 1981; Palmer, McMahon & Fissel., 2021; Hahnel-Peeters, Goetz & Goetz., 2022; Young & Thiessen, 1992)."
- ConspiracyFact 2y agoWhat is that claiming if not what the article says it’s claiming?
- zevon 2y agoThat researchers found those percentages of men expressing some willingness to rape if they could get away with it in the cited studies. Not the same thing at all as being "closet rapists" or "abstaining only for fear of being caught" as you chose to frame it. Do you have some actual beef with the studies and their methodology or do you just want to vent about woke misandrists?
- ConspiracyFact 2y agoIf you believe those figures you’re a misandrist. If someone referenced a study that “found” that 20-30% of African Americans would consider severely beating a white stranger if they thought they could get away with it, there is a 100% chance that you would dismiss the study out of hand as somehow fatally flawed. One hundred percent. This “finding”, along with your or anyone else’s acceptance of it, is outrageous and offensive.
- zevon 2y agoDude... 'If you believe X, you're stupid and here's a whataboutism about an unrelated but politically charged topic' doesn't really seem like a productive way to discuss research. May I suggest having your beverage of choice and a nice walk in your lunch break and to think back a bit on your university days when you presumably learned how researchers work and how to read studies? Also, maybe consider less insults and insinuations while you're at it.
- ConspiracyFact 2y agoNope. The claim is absurd and damaging and you should be ashamed of yourself for entertaining it.
- archagon 2y agoI think if you talked to more women about sexual assault, these numbers would not surprise you. I can’t speak to the validity of these stats in particular, but they don’t strike me as inherently absurd. (Unfortunately.) Also, observe that half the US voting population just elected a rapist for president.
- ConspiracyFact 2y agoI’m not going to continue to engage with someone who finds it plausible that one in five men is a potential rapist. We’re done.
- archagon 2y agoAs I recall, many (most?) of the rapists were from the vicinity.
- ConspiracyFact 2y agoCitation? Even if that’s true, that’s what, 50 out of maybe 50000?
- orwin 2y agoNah, sorry, i expressed myself poorly. What i meant to say is that you never know who is a rapist until he is in position to do it.
