The article did a good job of debunking the numbers but fell short in really addressing child sexual abuse as a cross-gender problem. Any time crime statisics are used, I shreek. This is not where you'll find accurate statistics as the vast majority of such cases go unreported. A questionaire at the local University isn't where I'd start to survey either, most of these women are brainwashed into thing all men are perverts. Many consider an unwelcomed glance sexual abuse.
The real statistics can be seen in incest and child abuse survivor surveys which show clearly women lead slightly over men in child sexual abuse.
I put together some numbers based on my research in an article I put on my website after the Poundstone story broke.
