1. Walt Davis Posted: July 16, 2021 at 06:22 PM (#6029326)However, 1/4 US women and 1/9 US men will be the victim of a DV incident this year. Over 10M Americans will be affected. That's insane. This is a societal epidemic. If anything, I'm not sure the rate in MLB isn't lower than society at large.
Not that it isn't bad, but those number don't add up. If those ratios held, it would be more like 50M people. I think the 10M is probably right, but the 1/4 and 1/9 way inflated.
Yeah, didn't think about it when I posted, but I pulled it direct from the first line of the google search for "how many people are affected by domestic violence in the us?"
That is a much much different number than the number of victims of domestic violence. If a person hits their spouse, the entire family is affected by DV. But only one direct victim.
