In regards to academic research on the prevalence of false accusations, O'Donahue (2019), conducted a careful review of the literature on the topic and concluded that 2–41% of accusations may be false, thus he called for more research into the topic, stating that much of the current research suffered from clear methodical flaws.<ref>https://www.springer.com/gp/book/9783030236441|O'Donahue (2019), Handbook of Sexual Assault and Sexual Assault Prevention, Chapter 32, Understanding False Allegations of Sexual Assault, pp 537-549</ref> | In regards to academic research on the prevalence of false accusations, O'Donahue (2019), conducted a careful review of the literature on the topic and concluded that 2–41% of accusations may be false, thus he called for more research into the topic, stating that much of the current research suffered from clear methodical flaws.<ref>https://www.springer.com/gp/book/9783030236441|O'Donahue (2019), Handbook of Sexual Assault and Sexual Assault Prevention, Chapter 32, Understanding False Allegations of Sexual Assault, pp 537-549</ref> | ||
In 1994, Eugene J. Kanin of Purdue University found false allegation rates of up to 80-90%. | |||
A midwestern police agency reported a rate of 41% and two college campuses a rate of 50%. | |||
Detectives from the Denver Metropolitan Area Police Department provided estimates ranging from 5% to 65%. | |||
An informal survey conducted at a conference including criminal justice personnel, the estimates varied widely from 0% to 98%. | |||
However, Kanin's methodology was questioned by various authors.<ref>https://endvawnow.org/uploads/browser/files/Successfully%20Investigating%20Acquaintance%20Sexual%20Assault%20-%20A%20Natl%20Training%20Manl%20Law%20Enforcmt.pdf</ref> | |||

Such women are likely predominantly [[life history|fast life strategists]]. | Contrary to feminist claims, there is [[#Rape baiting|substantial of evidence]] that at least some women like to provoke sexual attention of other men, often indeed with the intention of being forced into sex.
