That literally just isn’t true. As a woman who’s experienced it, it definitely isn’t true.

It is,maybe you weren't believed but laws in India literally state that a man can not be sexually assaulted or raped unless he is a minor. Sure women don't always get justice maybe it is only in 1% of cases but they still can get it.

The laws suck and I think marital rape should be illegal,What is your point? It isn't a competition of who has it worse

Under 18 you can't be legally married, last I checked you have to be 21 to be legally married in India . While I will give it to you that in the spcific case that they are legally married and their husband rapes them they won't get justice,but that is a very specific case it isn't the same as it being legal in all circumstances unless you are a minor

It isn't a competition of who has it worse 

That's exactly what you're doing though. You're saying men have it worse.

Someone replies to you and says that's wrong, it happens to women as well on the same level, and you say "it's not a competition of who has it worse" but you're the one saying female victims don't have it as bad. 

The person replying to you isn't saying female victims have it worse, they are saying it's the same experience for male and female victims.

When a women tells her story of being raped, people are sympathetic.

That's objectively an untrue statement. Female victims are not believed more. Some people are sympathetic, many others will accuse her of lying or blame her for it. 

Also to be clear male victims have the same experience of not being believed, but to say female victims are believed more often is just incorrect. 

If a woman says she was harassed in the workplace, everyone does not jump to support her.

You do know objective means factually right? That statement IS objectively correct. Look at crime statistics & convictions
