"We are not talking about awkward kisses. Assault is ..."

The post you are complaining about was simply casting doubt about what the statement "one in four women" covered. And yes, to me, that seems to be a very high 'rape' statistic.

Unfortunately Feminism chose to quite deliberately expand the term "sexual assault" to include such things as "verbal sexual assault" and "visual sexual assault". Hence the word "assault" (which historically involved some physical contact) needs to be qualified. 

But Feminists prefer these vague definitions as they produce sensational statistics.
