"Migrant crisis causing dangerous gender imbalance"

Following the news of sexual assaults on women in the German city of Cologne by gangs of young migrant men, there are now allegations something similar happened months ago in Sweden. Again the police and media are being accused of under-reporting the attacks.

Is there a problem with young men of immigrant background in regard to sexual assault? A question for Dr Valerie Hudson, author of a recent article called "Europe's Man Problem," and a professor at Texas A&M University. How might recent immigration into Europe affect the gender balance?
