One forcible rape every 6.3 minutes in 2001 in the US. That's a busy handful of guys. I guess at about 10 rapes a day a handful of guys in every city could manage it.

I'm not arguing that breasts are or should be more important than prostates. I just think prostates aren't OPPRESSED because the more popular and media-exposed body part gets more money, any more than the pretty popular girl raising more money for her charity than the plain shy girl means the plain shy girl is oppressed. It doesn't make it RIGHT- I just don't think it's a case of oppression.
Likewise, without healthy breasts, nursing a child becomes clinical.
Personally, I'm just tired of the media sponsored division that seems to have struck a nerve here. I maintain that equality is a human rights issue and should have little if nothing to do with gender.
They must be a popular handful of guys too, considering about 26% of rapes in the US are commited by a current or former partner
