minus-square@AngryCommieKender@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglish-2•1 year agoYou’re more likely to be killed by a mosquito than raped, and men are far more likely to be murdered than you. You might want to reevaluate your threat assessment.

minus-square@AngryCommieKender@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglish0•1 year agoI remembered the Texas economy lower than it is https://wisevoter.com/state-rankings/gdp-by-state/ I was thinking they were only at 1.6-1.8 trillion
minus-squaregirlfreddylinkfedilink2•1 year ago@AngryCommieKender You wrote about mosquitoes, rape and murder, not GDP. Those were the data I asked about.
minus-square@AngryCommieKender@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglish1•1 year agoSorry I got confused about the thread. https://www.mosquito.org/vector-borne-diseases/ Over 1 million people per year die from mosquitoes world wide. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sex_differences_in_crime Males were more likely to be murder victims. (78.6%) https://www.cdc.gov/violenceprevention/sexualviolence/fastfact.html There’s the best SA statistics you’ll find, but even they admit that the data on the men’s side is flawed and incomplete at best.
minus-squaregirlfreddylinkfedilink1•edit-21 year ago@AngryCommieKender Thank you for the apology. It’s appreciated. Statistics for rape conclude that 10% of the world’s female population are raped, which equates to about 400,000,000 girls and women. Stats on male rape are fairly non-existent (from a PDF here https://www.equalitynow.org/resource/the-worlds-shame-the-global-rape-epidemic/). That’s 400x the amount of people killed by mosquitoes. edit to correct numbers
minus-square@AngryCommieKender@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink1•edit-21 year agoNo it isn’t. That’s 400,000,000 total, not per year. The total number of humans killed by mosquitos is in the billions. Mosquitoes have killed more of us than anything else including us and war Oh, and that million+ per year is way down. Before we figured out how to cure malaria it was tens to hundreds of millions of humans per year.
