The Daily Telegraph published a story with the headline “Women who dress provocatively more likely to be raped, claim scientists”. The story went on to claim that women who are outgoing or drunk are also more likely to be raped. The wonderful Ben Goldacre of Bad Science followed up on the story. Turns out the “study” didn’t say anything like this, it was actually very preliminary work by a Masters student, and it was called “Promiscuous men more likely to rape”, in the author’s own press release.
Many thanks to Flaffer and possibly others (I think there were some, but I can’t find the emails)!
