Feminists commonly assume that even mild forms of rape are some of the worst crimes of all, comparable to murder, which is likely a major overstatement. No doubt, kidnapping, permanent physical trauma and murder should be classified as crimes with appropriate severity (i.e. assault and murder), but these do not represent the majority of outcomes of rape. The most common outcome is that the victim shows [[antifragility|resilience]], i.e. neither physical nor psychological harm in the long term. | Feminists commonly assume that even mild forms of rape are some of the worst crimes of all, comparable to murder, which is likely a major overstatement.
