Wie mir gerade eine meiner US-Quellen zugänglich macht, gab es im April letzten Jahres in der akademischen Fachzeitschrift "Archives of Sexual Behavior" wieder einen Beitrag zu diesem Thema. Er ist betitelt mit "Men's Reports of Nonconsensual Sexual Interactions with Women: Prevalence and Impact."

Hier der Abstract im Original (ja, ich bin zu faul zum Übersetzen):

--- Two studies examined the prevalence and emotional impact of men's nonconsensual sexual interactions with women. The first study included a sample of 247 heterosexual men with a mean age of 18.3 years. The second study was a replication with a sample of 153 heterosexual men with a mean age of 22.3 years. All respondents completed a measure of nonconsensual sexual interactions including the use of three aggressive strategies (physical force, exploitation of the man's incapacitated state, and verbal pressure) and three forms of unwanted sexual contact (kissing/petting, sexual intercourse, and oral sex). In addition, the relationship to the female initiator was explored. For each type of nonconsensual sexual interaction, respondents indicated the affective impact of the experience. In Study 1, 25.1% of respondents reported at least one incident of nonconsensual sex with a woman and 23.9% reported attempts by women to make them engage in nonconsensual sexual activity. In Study 2, the overall prevalence rate for completed nonconsensual sexual interactions was 30.1%, and 23.5% of the men reported attempts at making them engage in nonconsensual sex. In both samples, exploiting the man's inability to offer resistance was the most frequently reported aggressive strategy. Kissing/petting was the most frequently reported unwanted sexual activity, followed by sexual intercourse and oral sex. Prevalence rates were higher for nonconsensual sex with an (ex-)partner or friend than for nonconsensual sex with an unknown women. Ratings of affective impact revealed that men rated their nonconsensual experiences as moderately upsetting. The findings are discussed in the light of previous studies on men's unwanted sexual experiences and the extant literature on women's nonconsensual sexual interactions with men. ---

Auf einer verlinkten Seite kann man theoretisch auch den kompletten Beitrag lesen; dazu müsste man allerdings 39 Dollar berappen, wenn man kein Abonnent des Magazines ist. Sinnvoller wäre es, an einer deutschen Bibliothek, die damit ausgestattet ist, das Recherche-System OPAC zu nutzen. Das habe ich an der Mainzer Unibücherei getan, als ich diese Studien für "Sind Frauen bessere Menschen?" im Original lesen und ausdrucken wollte. Natürlich liefert OPAC auch Zugang zu anderen Fachjournalen zur Sex-und-Gender-Debatte, also "Sex Roles" und so weiter.
