I stated clearly it was a guesstimate, I explained that it could be coloured by my socio-economic class.
But it is my experience that 1 in 5 families at a minimum has an abusive guardian class person at home. (In the 80s-90s)
That official statistics are off by an order of magnitude really means nothing, when the point being made is that it was so normal as to not be reported.
Additionally you’re citing individual victimisations per 1000 people as a metric, when a family can consist of 2-10 people (averaging on about 4.4, “2.4 children” being the average in the 80’s). I’m stating households, you’re citing individuals. Individuals consist of single people, children, old people and so on. It’s not what I’m claiming.
If nothing else, female on male violence is extremely underreported to this day.
I’m not saying I’m right, But your argument is entirely unconvincing.
