    So heres a thought experiment for you to try:

    How many male on female gang rapes have you heard of.

    How many female on male.

      I mean, I can hardly remember a significant sample size of specific events of gang rape.

      And way, female on male sexual violence is taken even less seriously than the reverse. Many countries don’t even legally consider it rape.

      Pretending that male victims or female perpetrators don’t exist is only covering for rapists.

      Like, obviously, the majority of reported sexual assault perpetrators are men, and the majority of sexual assault victims are women, or that unreported cases likely follow the same trend. But the idea that it’s always a man is objectively false.

        I can hardly remember a significant sample size of specific events of gang rape.

        Take a look at India.

        And way, female on male sexual violence is taken even less seriously than the reverse. Many countries don’t even legally consider it rape.

        This is also because of the patriarchy. It hurts both men and women with it’s demand for strict gender roles.

        But the idea that it’s always a man is objectively false.

        Good thing this post very specifically points at that we know it’s not all men.

        No one is pretending male victims dont exist, or that women can’t be perpetrators. Claiming that is muddying the waters

        Men are overwhelmingly perpetrators of sexual crimes. If you get upset by people pointing this simple fact out, or have to challenge it with “what about female sexual violence” , you need to sit with yourself and ask why.
