“…Unwanted sexual intercourse was experienced by 8.8 per cent of females and by 8.6 per cent of males. The figures recorded in this study are at the higher end of estimates for more severe forms of child sexual abuse (Finkelhor, Hotaling, Lewis, & Smith, 1990;McGee et al, 2003;King et al 2004). It is important to note that unwanted sexual intercourse reported by males refers to young men who have experienced unwanted sexual intercourse as a minor with women five years their senior.…”

“…Despite the discrepancies in reporting across studies, the existence of child sexual abuse as a serious social problem in Africa cannot be denied. King, Flisherb, Noubarya, Reecec, Maraisb, & Lombardd (2004) sampled 2,946 secondary students from Cape Town and reported rates for attempted rape of 8.4%, while 5.8% had been actually raped. The available studies confirm the high prevalence of intrafamilial abuse and the fact that many perpetrators are known or closely related to their victims can be overshadowed where there is emphasis on commercial forms of child sexual abuse, such as prostitution (see Lalor, 2004a).…”

“…Por exemplo, para muitas mulheres a violência praticada pelo seu parceiro não é considerada estupro, aceitando as normas sociais que atribuem ao homem o direito de usar do corpo da mulher ao seu arbítrio 10 . Levando em consideração estas limitações, revisão dos diferentes estudos em vários países desenvolvidos e não desenvolvidos do mundo indica que entre 10 e 35% das mulheres são vítimas de violência sexual alguma vez na sua vida [3][4][5][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21] .

Do mesmo modo, o uso de álcool ou de drogas aumenta o risco de serem estupradas 17,18,26,27 . A identidade do agressor é diferente em estatísticas da polícia ou de serviços de saúde quando comparadas com estudos de população.…”

“…13 Sexual violence in childhood has been associated with family composition factors such as living with fewer than two biological parents or with a stepfather. 8,9,[14][15][16][17] Among university students in South Africa, sexual violence in childhood has been associated with having lived away from their biological mothers until the age of 16 years. 15 Among Nigerian students, it has been associated with not living with either parent.…”
