If it is true, that's probably only because women in developed countries are more likely to report having been raped, not that they're actually raped more often.
They justified it by explaining that the threat of women having power of men drives men to rape women, so the men can exert their dominance. In countries where women have set roles they don't threaten the positions of men.
that reminds me of the college history class I took a few years back (that's the history of my college, not a history class in college). we had a professor who would go on rants about how all the guys in the room had an 85% chance of becoming rapists and made us write a paper on why the world would be better if men were subordinate to women.
