Male Rape - An Invisible Problem

[Hovik]

The denial of male rape is unfortunately only one aspect of the problem. It is very common to see the denial of Men's Rights, or to label the entire Men's Rights Movement as misogynists.

[...]

Oh, and in case any of you are fans of the South Poverty Law Center, be aware that they recently declared various Men's Rights organisations (even the /r/mensrights subreddit) as hate groups, based on absolutely no evidence.

Exactly this. MRA groups are branded as misogynists and hate groups because they dare to express the notion that men have been given the short end of the stick by our legal system and government.

I mean, look at this crap. A man by the name of Omar Amin was browsing the books in this children's section of Barnes & Noble by himself to find something for his grandchildren. A woman complained about his presence being "suspicious," and the store responded by kicking him out.

This view that men are assumed to be sexual predators is extremely harmful. To give a more anecdotal example, I cannot tell you how many times I've been given dirty looks simply because I smiled when I saw a kid doing something cute. Am I a sexual predator? Hell no. I simply have a strong paternal instinct and find kids to be cute as hell. Why is it that when a woman does it, it's socially acceptable, but if a man does the same thing, he's clearly thinking about doing harmful things to the child? It's a double standard that very clearly highlights the gender bias that has been created.

I'm well aware that a man can be raped, but how does a man get raped by a woman????

Do you have an example?

Can you link an authenticated news story of a man being raped by a woman?

There are many, many cases of men being raped by women. It doesn't require physical strength to overpower someone; coercion and psychological abuse play an equally important role. What's more, contrary to popular yet incorrect belief, men are capable of becoming erect even against their wills.

For a specific example, read this. Note that the attitudes expressed by the writer of this article are not uncommon: it's humorous that the would-be robber was raped for three days. Search the internet for articles regarding this incident and ctrl+F "rape." I can promise you few if any of them will have that word in the article. Consider that, if the roles were reversed and a man had tied up a female would-be robber and raped her for three days, there would be a shitstorm. This is how bad the situation is for Men's Rights; people don't recognize that men can and have been raped.

Keep in mind that many cases of rape against men go unreported due to the social stigma attached to it as well as media outlets and police agencies not recognizing it as rape and therefore doing basically nothing about it.
For further reading, there is this thread on Reddit's r/askreddit subforum about this exact topic with various victims of rape discussing their stories.

In these instances, people aren't up in arms about it because men "cannot be raped" in the eyes of society. A man's peers will ridicule him for speaking up about it; strangers will say how "lucky" he is to have gotten laid. Hell, even the police will outright refuse to help and say point-blank that men can't be raped.
