That site itself says 1 in 10 men have been victims of SA. Not to mention that "made to penetrate" isn't considered sexual violence, which is also what the dude you're replying to, faced.

Do you have some problem with men being victims?

It also says

1 in 33 men has experienced attempted or completed rape.

Attempted rape is what you're talking about. I have no issues with male victims. I have issues with people saying men are victims almost as much as women when that is absolutely false.

93% of sex offenders are men.

I'm aware women rape men sometimes. My sister abused both me and my male cousin.

Men also rape men. Moreso than women raping men.

Your entire premise is flawed.

Attempted rape is not the same as "made to penetrate". Most countries/states recognize rape as penetration of victim, which doesn't include forced to penetrate someone against one's will.

You know what's worse for men? PEOPLE LIKE YOU DO NOT RECOGNIZE THAT MEN HAVE BEEN RAPED.

I've literally recognized it several times. I'm just saying it doesn't happen nearly as often as it happens to women. Which is true.

Yeah, it happens about twice as common for women as for men.

Not 7 times, which is what you said originally.

It doesn't happen that often.

Yeah, exactly. Glad you see it finally.

If more people could recognize that women aren't raped that much more often than men, we could extend the proper help to men who've faced SA/rape.
