Here's an incredible investigation by the Baltimore Sun on sexual assault on MEN in the military. Give it a read.

I have a suspicion that there is an incredibly large amount of male-on-male sexual assault in the U.S. military that is continuously dusted under the rug due to factors such as the strength of power/hierarchy, culture, and extralegal status of the Armed Forces.

And I suspect it is only coming to light because of the increasing integration of female soldiers. If the culture and atmosphere is such a massive breeder and abetter of sexual assault, perhaps that explains why all of a sudden there are sex scandals plaguing the military. Bring in the women, and bam! 1) Most people are heterosexual, so suddenly male/female rape spikes but far more importantly 2) people give a shit when women are raped. See U.S. male prison rape culture.

Any thoughts?

Society doesn't care what happens to men, only what happens to women.

Sexual assault of men had been a problem in the US military for 1 hundred years or more.

The only see attention being paid to it now, is because women are in the military and they are being affected.

They'll do what they usually do.

Solve the issue for women, and ignore it for men.

This could be so simple.

Repeated sexual assaults. Wire up the victim, or his living and working area, with cameras and voice recorders.

Get HARD PROOF. With hard proof, beyond reasonable doubt, punish the culprits really hard. Just as hard as unproven assailants of women get punished.

I mean, when women cry rape, the male alleged rapist has to prove his innocence, he is presumed guilty.

When a man gets repeatedly assaulted, help him to get PROOF.
