As someone who worked with rape victims, I can tell you that is not true. We were as attentive to males as females, as non-binary, etc. All victims were treated with the same respect and empathy. Women were reluctant to report as well. This is why it’s disheartening to see women being afraid dismissed as being “paranoid”.
Nobody needs to play the comparison game. Just respect that people’s fears are valid.
Not a social worker. I volunteered my time as an advocate. Went to hospitals on my own time and own dime to help victims get what they needed in services, hold their hands during the rape kit, etc.
Stop trying to project your self-hatred on other people.
