If marital rape was not an issue amongst GIs, it would not have driven their rate of rapes up.

Yet you aren’t disputing the methodology, but the definitions of rape.

Comparable metrics like “Rape per capita” and “rape per capita”.

Since 1944 rape was legally redefined and expanded 5-6 times in both France and England (i prefer not to get into the details...), some of the laws and significant societal changes, actual policing standards changed even after this book was written (2001) and published (2007). Even the non-conflict related stats have a disclaimer about cultural and legal differences limiting direct comparison, but most importantly the UN considers conflict-related sexual violence as its own distinct category (again you've compared conflict vs non-conflict stats).

But at this point I'll give in to your logic and conclude this discussion with this graph which clearly indicates "that by those numbers, it would be much safer to be a woman with an English man in 2007, than to be a woman with an English man in 2022."
