This was brought up and I were told that approximately 2-3% of rape is false and confirmed false. However, I thought this was a false statistic. I then read something about 40-60% of rape allegations could be false and it talked about unsubstantiated claims and confirmed cases. The figures keep changing drastically from one to another and some talk about false allegations as a whole even with women but I'm trying to find the statistic for men so I was wondering if anyone has a reliable source that shows confirmed false rape allegations (where men are the ones being accused) and potentially false rape allegations.

If you know anything about this but don't have a link/reference to a source then please just say so. Also, this is off-tracks but I also read that men are less likely to report rape, does anyone know anything about the validity of that?
