IMO, I imagine there are other parts of the world which are worse by far. For the sake of argument, however, lets say the pedo issue is consistently as the US, 1%.
Estimated world pop at 7.8b, so ÷100 is 78mil. That seems really, really high. The difficulty of this is reflection on what constitutes pedo in different countries.
Japan, you are an adult legally at 16, though 18 is traditional from what I've read.
18 in US, I've heard 16 or 17 with parental consent. I had two sisters marry at 17, one still married after 34 years, the other lasted 5.
Traditionally, in India a girl becomes a legal woman when she starts.... Uh ... starts, so that is anywhere from 11 to 16, so I've heard this is still something that happens in many villages (confirmed first hand from people we know who live there).
These observations may be wrong, I'm no expert, so be gentile.
And that’s just the USA. On a global scale, what would that number?
