How many men are rapists?
I voted G, but it's pretty close to the F/G line.
I'm interpreting rape her to be knowingly having sex with someone contrary to their will - she's passed out, or he's threatened her, or he's using force. I've seen things in the kind of 1%-4% range on men who have done that, probably closer to the 1-2% range, but a 4% number wouldn't stun me. That's for a north American context. In some countries with extremely high levels of violence, it's higher.
That number is based, obviously, not on convictions, but rather on surveys of men themselves. If you ask men if they've raped, they all say no, but if you ask if they've had sex without a partner's consent, they seem to answer pretty candidly. That few percent of men who admit to having sex without consent when surveyed, typically indictate they've done so on average 5-6 times (different victims). And that roughly gets you to your 1/4 of women being raped number, give or take. If 20% of men were rapists, we'd see much more like 80-90% of women having been raped, unless you somehow think men who rape don't do it again. That seems absurd (and isn't supported by the data). So what we're looking at is somewhere in the 1-4% of men who knowingly and repeatedly commit sexual assault.
Now if you use much broader definitions of rape, you might come up with a higher number, but interestingly, the 'broader definitions' tend to include things that the victims themselves don't view as rape. It's also worth noting that under broader definitions, women are the perpetrators and men the victims to a significant degree (perhaps 35-40% of expanded definition). So while I would agree that talking about consent more and more freely could help people navigate their sex lives with less people being damaged by accident, that should be viewed as something quite separate from this pocket of rapists in our midst. They know damn well they don't have consent.
I'd suggest we could probably do a much better job of training people to watch out for these individuals among their social circle.

voted 10-20%... not sure why you are getting all the disgusting answers here but sorry. seems like a simple and straight forward question. but obviously most men don't know how many men or the percentage of men that are rapist. like you we'd only be able to rely on the numbers based on reports
About 3-4% or less, only dumb feminazis and misogynists would say 100%.

Kinda disappointed how many are saying more than 3-5% 😐

No idea but it never even crossed my mind.
But it can also be about semantics:

Rapists are NOT only the guys who drag a girl in the bushes at night.
Rapists are ALSO the guys who don't understand a no is really a NO and force sex on a girl. Often when she wanted just some 'petting' and had been drinking a bit.
And raping a 'slut' is as wrong as raping a virgin!
Read this question: www.girlsaskguys.com/.../q2197205-is-rape-really-that-serious-of-a-crime
And it's about guys feeling ENTITLED to sex on the 4th date or so
And it's about the old hoax "when a woman says no, say means yes".

To assume all men is ridiculous, to assume none is being in denial, the amount of men committed for rape crimes and even ones not arrested or reported is about in the US alone I'd say roughly maybe 30,000 out of millions, as for the world especially third world countries and such I'm sure the number is shockingly large. Out of the world pop im taking a guess as to 30%-40% have at least once raped or molested or entertained thoughts of doing it, not fantasy, actually thought of going through with it.

Obviously all men are rapists

I thought you had figured it out, that we are all rapists. Yep, every single one of us is a rapist. 100% of us are and it's in our nature.
We are waiting around in every corner, stalk women and wait for a good moment to rape women.
Any man, who is not a rapist is not a man. -
just putting it out there but if we did live in a true "rape culture" women in western countries would be dragged out on the street on a daily basis and rape in front of people like its the social norm, which i thank god is not the case
but to your question a small percent from what i have noticed its not like its a badge of honor to wear -
A VERY low percentage, don't get me wrong, there are many, but there are roughly 4 Billion men on earth, so considering that number it has to be on the low side of 0-1%
-
Every man is a rapist, cause we're all evil who just hate women and want to take control over them.

As a counter question how many women? CDC says that man and women rape, and are raped at roughly equal levels.
-
I would say a low percentage
No way for us to tell really
I would say somewhere in the 5-10% range if i had to guess
Same goes for how many women are rapists maybe a hair less I don't know -
Probably 0-3%. Consider that a small portion of guys are having most of the sex with girl. I'd guess and even SMALLER portion are committing all of the rapes.
-
Please tell me the large amount of guys that said 75-100% selected it as a joke
-
In reality maybe 0-1%. But if you ask the feminist scum 100%
-
