Has anyone noticed how common these jokes are about men? I see it everywhere, I've even seen large creators on tiktok make these jokes and get away with it or even getting lots of likes. Why are they acceptable??

You might think because they're in prison so they must have done someone wrong to deserve it. But no one deserves rape. And to use rape as a punishment is insulting to rape victims. Also you never hear it said about female prisoners. We would never use this insult against women and say she deserves to be raped (there have been a few who have said it but they're called out for being sexist)

I think the reason is that men being raped isn't seen as tragic and traumatic but embarrassing, humiliating and emasculating and most jokes/insults about men target masculinity.

It's similar to how men used to rape eachother to "prove dominance" and was a way to make another man "less of a man" so I guess not being a "real man" is a punishment. White men used to rape tribe leaders in Africa so that the other members of the tribe would lose all respect for him as a man and this seems quite similar in a way.

Why do people think it's okay to say this? It's also pretty homophobic at the same time in my opinion. Seeing this stuff in songs too is incredibly upsetting and disgusting that so many people will see this and laugh thinking that it's an acceptable punishment for men and men only because being "gay" makes you less of a man and being raped is just funny or laughable when it happens to a man.
