I'm terrified of being falsely accused by a stranger. I'm terrified of having sexual relationships with someone because they could turn around and say I raped them. I'm terrified of the idea of having children in the future because my "wife" could take them from me and otherwise try and ruin my life. I'm terrified of the future of any children I might be father to otherwise, especially if I have a male.
I'm terrified that even raising awareness to some of these issues, specifically false-rape, might not actually help the problem, but rather worsen it by giving girls ideas.
I want to teach, I'd love to be a teacher, but aside from blatant prejudice from male teachers, I'd be afraid of being accused of something that I didn't do, or even merely being disallowed to teach in the first place because I'm a man.
Women are afraid of their lives being "ruined" because of being raped, I'm afraid of my life being ruined because women know the repercussions of the accusation of rape.
/edit: I should note on this, since virtually every response is saying the exact same thing, I wasn't being incredibly literal with this post. I was being a bit sensationalist, but for a reason. These things happen, and people are in fear of them. These things don't really bother me while in my every day life. I'm mainly just trying to emphasize that these are real issues that need to be addressed.
