86 percent of sexual abuse cases are never reported to authorities.
I'm afraid I'm going to fall neatly into the stereotype here, but I don't believe it. Numbers on how often anything goes unreported are never going to be much better than guesswork. Her extrapolation to 20% of women having been a victim of abuse also assumes that all of the reported cases were genuine.
