"South African rape survey shock"

It said practices such as gang rape were common because they were considered a form of male bonding.
Why are the BBC so naive as to be 'shocked' by this statistic?


Horrific statistics, but it's not as if no one was aware that this is unbelievably prevalent in South Africa.
