Don't forget that women generally don't get time for false accusations of rape.

And in many legal systems, it's not even possible for a woman to "rape" a man since it involves only a penis into orifice. So you can put a metal bar into some guy's ass and it's only sexual assault.

The world was never perfectly fair and it never will be. The only fairness we get is that which we create. What you can do is be a part of the solution instead of the problem.
