Simple question for you: how many women were convicted of sexual assault or other sex crimes in the UK since 2018? Try to Google the answer and you will the UK government’s Office of National Statistics has not publicly provided the sex of convicted sex offenders. It has for the victims, along with a range of statistics on other protected characteristics, but there is no readily available hard data on female sex offenders. This matters because while the majority of convictions for sexual offenses are likely legally male in the eyes of the UK courts, there have been significant convictions of female sexual abusers to show that sexual assault is not purely committed by men.
