| 0 | Was told to post this here, This past Saturday, I was raped. The thing is, I'm a man. I have no idea how to approach this, considering I don't know my rapistThe physical act is different- no penetration occurred. I am not required to prove, it is the consensus (every report i have ever seen dealing with this subject makes the distinction). You are in fact required to disprove. Show me some critique of the current rape laws that doesnt stem from some batshit crazy regressive right, or indeed, this very sub. I have never moved the goalposts. This whole argument hinges on the fact that without penetration it is not considered rape. You are the one comm… | /r/MensRights | 01/08/12 02:09 PM |

Well you obviously are just reading what you want to read. It is not the same as your example of spousal rape; there the physical act was the same, yet social convention decried it as an impossibility. How could a man (or in EXTREMELY rare cases, a woman) rape their spouse? Here the difference is purely physical. You are arguing, from the paranoid standpoint that the law bizarrely favors wymnnzx, that the physical act is of no import, that if a man feels he was raped then he was raped.

Ok, well thankyou for dripping your well thought-out, politely worded mind sweat onto my screen. It was not "my" definition of rape per se, it was the report's. And the US law. And Australian law. And U.K law. More women suffer this legally and academically sanctioned interpretation of rape than men. I imagine there are very strong grounds as to why the OP's case is considered sexual assault and not rape. Hence the legal and academic differentiation. | /r/MensRights | 01/08/12 11:12 AM |

I said numerous times he must have felt violated. That is a horrible feeling. But violation is not 'dependent' on rape. There are many situations in which one is made to feel violated. | /r/MensRights | 31/07/12 05:11 PM |
| 0 | Was told to post this here, This past Saturday, I was raped. The thing is, I'm a man. I have no idea how to approach this, considering I don't know my rapistBut the whole point is that rape is not just 'forced intercourse, plain and simple'. It is complex. | /r/MensRights | 31/07/12 05:01 PM |

I have no idea how to approach this, considering I don't know my rapistAt no point do I say women have it worse. Though if you look at any piece of data concerning rape and sexual violence then yes, they do have it 'worse', if that means it happens with far greater frequency. | /r/MensRights | 31/07/12 04:48 PM |
| -8 | Was told to post this here, This past Saturday, I was raped. The thing is, I'm a man. I have no idea how to approach this, considering I don't know my rapistWell, the discussion I was trying to raise was the weight/resonance of using a word such as rape to describe any form of sexual attack. I do not think he is 'lucky' for not being penetrated, he is unlucky for having gone through an unsettling experience. You haven't really responded to anything I said... I still maintain that calling this instance a rape undermines the trauma that millions suffer on a daily basis. | /r/MensRights | 30/07/12 11:36 PM |

First of all, I want to emphasize that I in no way think you are a faggot, pussy, bitch or any of the other vile, childlike names that people have felt it necessary to call you. You had an experience that understandably left you feeling violated; anyone who doesn't take this seriously should be ignored. There is no shame in feeling scared or powerless. The shame should reside with those that seek to undermine another persons sense of agency and control. That said, I think you should think c… | /r/MensRights | 30/07/12 09:59 PM |
