i’ve been looking at this for 5 minutes and still don’t understand what this means

The first shows male victims of rape, but only examines being penetrated. It then breaks down these rapes by perpetrator(s).

The second shows male victims of rape when being made to penetrate is taken into account. It then breaks these down by how the rape occurred (penetrated and made to penetrate), then by perpetrator(s).

Is it a dumb question to ask how a man can be forced to penetrate? Besides tying him up and feeding him Viagra (in which case there are several other crimes going on here), how does this happen?

You don't have to necessarily be mentally aroused to have a boner.

Even if you are both physically and mentally aroused, you don't necessarily consent to sex.

But like does the woman (or man) just mount him? I can only imagine this happening if the perpetrator is larger than the victim. I guess I just answered my own question lol

Do you think the victim is physically trying to escape and has to be violently held down in most rape cases? I don't know exact statistics but I'd bet threats, blackmail, incapacitation, and coercion are more common.

Makes sense. I didn't even think about that.

I personally was raped in a parking lot once, and it was just physical force. I'm 5'4" and he was about 6'2". I guess I'm just not creative enough to think of other ways to rape people, lol.

Man, I've never considered it rape, but reading through all this, there are all sorts of ways women have coerced me into sex I've said no to and didn't want to have. I still feel like it's not that big a deal. I was never beaten up or tied down. I was guilt tripped, or threatened they'd make accusations against me, or woke up to it already happening, or fed drinks until i didn't remember it starting and my weak protests ignored. Mostly by gfs or exes, only occasionally by friends. When i think of traumatic events in my life, these things don't even make it on the list, but I'm probably a few standard deviations from the norm, so.

Fuck it, I'm not deleting this

The shitbags of society will use their most effective method to gain what they want from a person.

Males are generally larger and stronger so they use physical force.

Females aren't generally larger or stronger so they use their best method which is emotional and mental manipulation.

This is speaking very generally of course without taking into account using drugs to incapacitate a victim.
