Can we address the rape double standard?

Yep. I was once at a club with a group of friends. Among them was a girl that i was also friends with at the time got drunk and ended up forcing herself at me against a wall. She was shorter but also heavier.

I didn't resist since i was also pretty drunk. But i didn't consent to her either. She kept her hand in my pants and fondled me while she had me pinned with her body weight.

Yet she's out free to this day insisting men are the terrible ones. Like the 'self-victimezed hypocrite that she is.

I was in a similar situation. When I was young me and a girl friend found some porn. I didn’t know much about it because I was only 10 she was 12. Long story short...we started to wrestle after and she pinned me down....pulled my pants down and started rubbing me. I asked her to stop but she just told me to shut up or else she would tell everyone. I let her finish doing what she wanted to too me (basically what she saw in the porn movie which included penetration ). We stopped hanging out after that day. I didn’t feel relieved until she moved away a year later.

if a woman claims a man raped her, he goes to jail before an investigation

Where does it happen? The conviction rate for rape cases is 3.3 percent (in the UK)!!!! Only 3 percent of all accused rapists (of either gender) were convicted. Three out of hundred.

Where if a man proves he was raped, he has to pay child support

Nobody should be raped, and those who are convicted of rape should not raise children.

Or how about the one where if someone touches your genitals without your consent:

1) If you have a vagina: this *always* counts as rape, regardless of what your assailant used to do the touching, how slightly it penetrated your vagina, or what their motivation was. All you have to prove is that your own genitals were

2) If you have a penis this ONLY counts as rape if you can prove your assailant used their own vagina or anus to do the touching, and only if you can prove they succeeded in penetrating themselves. If your assailant uses anything else to wrap around, hit, or smash your penis or testicles - a hand, an object, a condom, even an animal!- that does not count as rape. Even if they caused you to ejaculate against your will or injured you. Even if their motivation was clearly sexual, and they clearly intended to force you to penetrate. Because the legal definition of rape doesn't even mention male genitals except as a potential weapon.

And in some places the mere fact that you are males automatically disqualifies you from consideration as a rape victim even if you are forced to penetrate a vagina or anus.

Rape laws should be made gender-neutral including male victims and female perpetrators.
False rape accusations should be penalised exactly the same as rape conviction.

Why indeed. Since she was in the progress of committing a crime (rape), at the time of conception, and if convicted, she is, thereby gaining from the spoils of her crime. Even more outrageous if he refuses to pay in protest, he is now the one in prison. HE IS THE VICTIM!!!

nobody is sentenced to jail before an investigation in America, what?

and yeah it’s really terrible that men have to pay for a child who is a product of rape. Heartbreaking. I wish those kids would be adopted out to a parent who could care for them.

Before all the sexist women and white knights crawl out of there rat hole with the full "there's a very small number of women who lie compared to actual rapists" let me just say the fact it's happening at all is vile. And this "small number" of false accusers has already done damage they are the reason that genuine victims sometimes are not believed.
