U.S. Department of Justice 2009 National Former Prisoners Survey puts the number at slightly below 10% for all forms of sexual assault.
According to the National Prison Rape Elimination Commission (http://cybercemetery.unt.edu/archive/nprec/20090820155502/http://nprec.us/files/pdfs/NPREC_FinalReport.PDF) the number is anywhere from 6.5% in some prisons to 15.9% in others.
The Justice Department puts the number at 4.7% but admits it could be "even twice that."
Cindy Struckman-Johnson et al., Sexual Coercion Reported by Men and Women in Prison, 33 J. Sex Res. 67 (1996); see also Cindy Struckman-Johnson & David Struckman-Johnson, Sexual Coercion Rates in Seven Midwestern Prison Facilities for Men, 80 Prison J. 379, 383 (2000)
So we'll say 10% at most for prison sexual assault.
Now for women:
20% of women on college campuses will endure some kind of sexual assault before they leave school.
Douglas, K. A.; et al. (1997). "Results from the 1995 national college health risk behavior survey.". Journal of American College Health 46: 55?66.
The National Institute of Justice and the Bureau of Justice Statistics put the number "anywhere between one fifth and one quarter." https://www.ncjrs.gov/pdffiles1/nij/182369.pdf
Is that enough for you? My statement that women are more likely to be victims of sexual violence in the real world than men in prison is correct by a large margin.
These statistics are hard to pin down exactly but there is essentially no possible way to not see a higher prevalence of sexual assault amongst women, even if you took the highest prison statistics and the lowest general rape statistics.

Come at me Bro
OT: I do believe that this was just caused by misinformation but i understand what the OP is trying to get at, these days people do hold an underlying grudge against the male gender (Men included) as it has become a social norm to vilify men for their past deeds or the deeds of others from generations ago (look at australia and the aborigines.) There is a sense of sexism but it is part of the subconscious and people don't realize that it is rather difficult to change your subconscious feelings (Like how i personally would prefer sitting in a group of white people rather than foreigners, not because i hate them but i have a subconscious idea that it is more comfortable sitting with those who i have something in common. I am something of a hermit so i don't like people in general)
The way the article states it, it seems the whole thing went like this:
1: Woman snatches the guy's stuff.
2: The guy tries to get his stuff back from her.
3: The "intervention" happens and the thief escapes.
My guess is that the people who intervened only saw part 2, and not part 1, making it look like He was stealing from Her, so they try to break up the fight.
Did they go for the guy just because they missed part 1, or because the man attacking the woman is (sadly) the scenario you always hear about/see in films? Nobody knows, least of all us, so it's best not to accuse the two of anything until we know more.

Ah the silly monkey does not know the extent of my.....bah this is boring within the second sentenceBoudica said:
Exactly this. The second you make decisions based on gender and not fact, bam. Sexism. hire someone based on sex, not ability? the same. pay them different wages for the same job? ditto.Eri said:
