DOJ Foot-Dragging On Prison Rape Unites Left-Right Coalition

More men are raped than women? Nope.

=================================



Yes.



Not only in prison, but to males under the age of 21.



Rape is the most under reported crime in America. We have no idea how many are raped.

I think you, too, are proving my point, about the diminishment and dismissal of men's feelings.



Men are people, too, and experience the same feelings as women when raped: Depression, anger, guilt, self-blame, sexual dysfunctions, flashbacks, and suicidal feelings.



Other problems facing males include an increased sense of vulnerability, damaged self-image and emotional distancing. Male rape victims not only have to confront unsympathetic attitudes if they choose to press charges, they also often hear unsupportive statements from their friends, family and acquaintances. People will tend to fault the male victim instead of the rapist.



Sound familiar? ["She was asking for it, wearing that short skirt" versus "How can he claim to have been raped against his will if he got an erection?"]
