Violence across America's cities has increased on an annual basis. In 2018, 652,676 women were raped or sexually assaulted while the corresponding number for men was 81,956. . On college campuses in the US, among undergraduate students, 23.1% of females and 5.4% of males experience rape or sexual assault through physical force, violence, or incapacitation. Here are some statistics for sexual violence:

One in five women and one in 71 men will be raped at some point in their lives
In the U.S., one in three women and one in six men experienced some form of contact sexual violence in their lifetime
51.1% of female victims of rape reported being raped by an intimate partner and 40.8% by an acquaintance
52.4% of male victims report being raped by an acquaintance and 15.1% by a stranger
Almost half (49.5%) of multiracial women and over 45% of American Indian/Alaska Native women were subjected to some form of contact sexual violence in their lifetime
91% of victims of rape and sexual assault are female, and nine percent are male
In eight out of 10 cases of rape, the victim knew the perpetrator
8% of rapes occur while the victim is at work
One in four girls and one in six boys will be sexually abused before they turn 18 years old
30% of women were between the ages of 11 and 17 at the time of their first completed rape
12.3% of women were age 10 or younger at the time of their first completed rape victimization
27.8% of men were age 10 or younger at the time of their first completed rape victimization
More than one third of women who report being raped before age 18 also experience rape as an adult
96% of people who sexually abuse children are male, and 76.8% of people who sexually abuse children are adults
34% of people who sexually abuse a child are family members of the child
It is estimated that 325,000 children per year are currently at risk of becoming victims of commercial child sexual exploitation
The average age at which girls first become victims of prostitution is 12-14 years old, and the average age at which boys first become victims of prostitution is 11-13 years old
Only 12% of child sexual abuse is ever reported to the authorities
20% - 25% of college women and 15% of college men are victims of forced sex during their time in college
63.3% of men at one university who self-reported acts qualifying as rape or attempted rape admitted to committing repeat rapes
More than 90% of sexual assault victims on college campuses do not report the assault
27% of college women have experienced some form of unwanted sexual contact
Nearly two thirds of college students experience sexual harassment

Clearly this is a sad state of affairs and a very alarming trend. One can only guess as to the catalyst for this type of heinous behavior. Some argue that is the fault of the female while others argue that it stems from the male dominant attitude that still permeates the workplace.

Can you think of a situation where the bystander approach could have been used and you should have stood up to change the perception that was being expressed. Although the presentation is about men to women, clearly this is not a female dominated issue as the statistics show. How can we change the culture of our society that perpetuates this type of violence?
