In fact, one meta study of N = 55 studies found child sexual abuse accounts for only ''1%'' of the variance in later psychological outcomes, whereas family environment accounted for 5.9% of the variance.<ref>https://linkinghub.elsevier.com/retrieve/pii/S0272735818300539</ref><ref>https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/17405629.2016.1150174</ref><ref>https://www.ipce.info/library_3/rbt/metaana.pdf</ref><ref>http://emilkirkegaard.dk/en/wp-content/uploads/A-replication-of-the-meta-analytic-examination-of-child-sexual-abuse-by-Rind-Tromovitch-and-Bauserman.pdf</ref> Women who do develop PTSD in mild cases may often already have had a disposition for high neuroticism, which may often only be worsened by a highly dramatized social response to rape. | In fact, one meta study of N = 55 studies found child sexual abuse accounts for only ''1%'' of the variance in later psychological outcomes, whereas family environment accounted for 5.9% of the variance.<ref>https://linkinghub.elsevier.com/retrieve/pii/S0272735818300539</ref><ref>https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/17405629.2016.1150174</ref><ref>https://www.ipce.info/library_3/rbt/metaana.pdf</ref><ref>http://emilkirkegaard.dk/en/wp-content/uploads/A-replication-of-the-meta-analytic-examination-of-child-sexual-abuse-by-Rind-Tromovitch-and-Bauserman.pdf</ref> Women who do develop PTSD in mild cases may often already have had a disposition for high neuroticism, which may often only be worsened by a highly dramatized social response to rape. | ||
The severity with which rape is socially ostracized is thus likely disproportional to the overall harm caused by rape, especially since rape is rare and is committed by a [[apex fallacy|tiny subset of men]], and thus it is mostly a moral panic. All of this is complicated by the fact that most women have [[#Rape_fantasies|rape fantasies]] and appear to sometimes [[#Rape baiting|provoke]] it. Wendy McElroy suggested that rape hysteria has inflicted harm on women themselves.<ref>https://www.independent.org/publications/tir/article.asp?id=1162</ref> | The severity with which rape is socially ostracized is thus likely disproportional to the overall harm caused by rape, especially since rape is rare and is committed by a [[apex fallacy|tiny subset of men]], and thus it is mostly a [[virtue signaling|moral panic]].

The moral panic about rape, also called "rape hysteria", may be an unnecessary burden on the mental development of young men<ref>http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=de&u=http://www.psychotherapiepraxis.at/artikel/sexualtherapie/zwangsgedanken_paedophilie.phtml&prev=search</ref> and may contribute to their deteriorating romantic lives due to the additional fear of being [[metoo|falsely accused]] of rape or harassment, causing a [[shy]]ness to approach women. Arguably, men experiencing such shyness also have a predisposition for high neuroticism. | The moral panic about rape, also called "rape hysteria", may be an unnecessary burden on the mental development of young men<ref>http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=de&u=http://www.psychotherapiepraxis.at/artikel/sexualtherapie/zwangsgedanken_paedophilie.phtml&prev=search</ref> and may contribute to their deteriorating romantic lives due to the additional fear of being [[metoo|falsely accused]] of rape or harassment, causing a [[shy]]ness to approach women.
