Study: 1/3 of college men would use force for sex

By Around the Web

(Discovery) Over a third of college men interviewed for a new study said that they would force a woman to have sex “if nobody would ever know and there wouldn’t be any consequences.”

Over 13 percent (13.6) said they would rape a woman under the same circumstances, said the study, which was published in the journal Violence and Gender.

For the study, the researchers interviewed 86 heterosexual, mostly white, males, over 18. The men filled out multiple questionaires that guaged their sexual attitudes and behaviors toward women. The students received extra credit for filling them out.
