It's not uncommon for women to fear rape and abuse in developed countries, too. One in 4 women in developed countries will be raped or sexually abused at some point in their lifetime. This is significantly higher than males.

But I'm not going to go into detail all of the circumstances in which I was disadvantaged because of my gender because they are pretty personal, and last time it just ended badly for everyone and I just pretty much can't be bothered arguing this topic again and again now with males.
