Just to further your opinion:

Only ~30% of sexual assaults get reported according to this: https://www.rainn.org/statistics/criminal-justice-system

And psychologists will probably tell you that after the assault there is shame, embarrassment, fear of repercussions due to power dynamics and anxiety about what will happen. Of course this doesn't mean our society is dysfunctional, as we already managed to get a lot of systems in place to drive up this figure, but they're all far from perfect, and we need more studies and more improvements to do victims of SA better justice.
