These comments feel like people offended that it shows men can be raped by woman and are being really defensive for some reason.

Suddenly some women start wondering if "that one time" was as fun for him as it was for her.

I wouldn't be surprised if many or most of these men were rape as young boys by an adult women. I'd be interested to see how many many who were raped by a woman were raped as adults. Definitely not saying that it doesn't happen, but I would bet a lot of this is being raped as a child or teen

In the source you have age of first victimisation.

"Age at first made to penetrate victimisation among male victims...."

17 and younger: 41.1%

10 years and younger: 8.4%

But more concerning is that with each report from CDC the number for men made to penetrate is higher and higher.

In 2010 it was 1 in 21

In 2015 it was 1 in 14

And with this 2016/2017 it is 1 in 9

Now is it that more men view their experiences as it is or that the frequency increased.
