If you read the FBI Crime report for the year, multiply by 30 (years per
generation) and divide by the number of women you should come close
to 25%, BUT many women DO get raped multiple times but that data is
not available generally.  Sooo I would credit the 1 in 10 number more
than the 1 in 5 number.
