> I am not sure over 300,000 women a year in the US is 'almost no'.
We were talking about women getting raped, impregnated and having children unbeknownst to the father. That was the "almost no" I was talking about.
> With an estimate of somewhere in the 7-12,000 a year having children as a result.
An "estimate". Fine. There are about 4 million births in the US every year.

So I'm gonna stick to "almost no" here.
> And something like 1 in 6 having been raped in their life time. Yes those are estimates, but still a significant number.
More estimates? By whom? Let me guess, an organization dedicated to inflating numbers?

Of course. I no more trust "estimates" from rainn than I do climate change "estimates" from exxon.
As I said, we were talking about women getting raped, impregnated and having children unbeknownst to the father. You turned that discussion into a stealth argument about "rape culture".
OP asserted that "many" spouses of "cuckolded" fathers were a result of rape. It was a very specific assertion. I responded to that, not anything about rapes in general.
Why is every response on this thread pushing the "rape narrative" here? I think that 1 rape is too many, but that wasn't what we are talking about? Why inject politics into this?
