A lower percentage of women get raped in India than the US. I mean this might be because people in the US are defining rape completely differently to everywhere else but I don't think so.

Decent women in India aren't allowed outside alone. You don't go outside alone in India if you're a woman. Say what you want to about the US, but women can walk the streets fairly safely. You an Indian, Jet? I know they hate to have this talked about.

No, not Indian.
I just find the US stats odd and it's weird no one seems to be worried about it.
I mean the percentage of women who have been raped in Europe tends to be around 5-10%. The rate in the US is 20-25%.
Surely that kind of big difference in rate indicates a cultural difference of some kind specifically around rape as the life styles are similar. I believe the Indian rate is similar to Europe.
