  Over the weekend a young man came forward to the police to file a report of a sexual assault that occurred early on March 31. The 19 year old told police that he had been out and upon leaving a club in Toronto’s Entertainment District he was offered a ride from four women. Instead of dropping him off, the four women took him to a parking lot and each sexually assaulted him. The police are looking for four white women between 30 and 36 around 5'4" and between 190 and 200lbs who were out in a Honda SUV on the night of March 30.
  The story has made the rounds of all the major news outlets.
  The response from some cretins on social media has been jaw-droppingly ignorant and abusive towards the victim.
  One might think that, with the Steubenville rape case barely gone from the cultural rearview mirror, in 2013 people may have learned how to better approach rape cases in a helpful and supportive way. Instead the young victim is being told:
  1. It is funny that he was raped.
  2. He should consider himself lucky.
  3. He wasn’t raped because men can’t get raped.
  4. It is his own fault and he is to blame.
  These attitudes are not only disgustingly ignorant and wrong, but they perpetuate these same dusty old antiquated ideas for future generations and prevent victims from getting help and keep them suffering in silence.
  It is hard to think of a famous case where a man was sexually assaulted because people — society, the media — openly laugh at male victims of sex crimes and these cases don't make it to light. We don’t need to look any further than Adam Sandler’s recent attempt That’s My Boy to see an example of a male victim of sexual assault being treated as lucky and the situation as a funny non-issue. It is no wonder that it took this young man until April 5 to go to police: there are almost no resources for male victims of sex crimes and everything out there on the matter completely delegitimises his experience.
  Even Nicole Pietsch of the Ontario Coalition of Rape Crisis Centres took the opportunity while being interviewed by the Toronto Sun about this case to say that “statistically and anecdotally [rape] is a crime experienced mostly by women, and the offenders tend to be male.” Her statement has no bearing on the case of the young man who was raped other than to reaffirm notions that this case is an oddity and men aren’t victims, notions that keep victims (like this young man and others) from coming forward and seeking justice for their rape.
  This young man is so amazingly brave to go to police with his story.
  The reaction on social media has been downright disturbing, with a limitless number of heartfelt LOLs and LMAOs from people like this, who seem to think it is totally okay to laugh at a real human person being gang raped:
  
  To ignorant misunderstanding of the basic idea that men can be victims of rape from people like AHL defenseman Mike Banwell from the Springfield Falcons:
  
  The chatter is easy to breakdown into the four basic categories of dismissal listed above, along with a category specific to this case where we are told that the rape victim wouldn't have been "raped" when the four attacked abducted him and sexually assaulted him in a secluded parking lot if they weren't as fat.
  Here are some of the most retch-worthy tweets, responses, and Reddit comments.
  It’s funny that he was raped
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  He’s lucky!
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Men can’t get raped
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Old fashioned victim blaming
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  This guy, who manages to be offensive to gays, women, and the victim, really takes the cake:
  
  It wouldn't have been rape if they weren't chubby
  
  
  
  
  
  If you've made it this far down just be warned that after reading all that garbage it may take some time for your faith in humanity to return.

  He wasn’t raped because men can’t get raped.

  
  Oh?
  That's about equivalent to "I'm too young to die."

  I think we need a new plague. Or a few meteors hitting the Earth. Maybe a lot of meteors.

  Very strategically placed meteors...
  
  As a straight guy I can say it's very possible. I know that if a girl came up to me and randomly started groping me I'd feel extremely uncomfortable. But hey, maybe that's just me.

  It's sad when victim-shaming in general is all because of people being both misandrists and misogynists. I mean, there's no denying that society is a sexist piece of shit, but men are the ones they supposedly like and hold in high esteem no matter what they do.
  
  But when it comes to rape? OHH NO NO guys can't be raped because they always like sex! Plus girls are too weak to rape other guys anyway! And if it's a guy who raped him then he deserved it because he's gay!
  
  Victim-shaming needs to fucking stop. It's morally and literally wrong. But will they? Pft. Humans are assholes by nature. Our only hope is to keep fighting dumbasses like these and wait for their opinion to become a minority.

  For the record, for all the girls wondering how it really is possible for women to rape men;
  
  Our penis don't like to listen to us. That shit gets an erection whenever it wants, regardless of the situation. Sometimes, you can be completely disgusted and repulsed by something and your dick is still up. No, it isn't some sort of hidden subconscious fetish or desire for what is going on. If I get an erection in the middle of my calculus exam, it is most certainly not because I have an unacknowledged fetish for finding the integral of a complex function. Also, there are plenty of medication that women can easily feed men that prevents him from going flaccid for a loonnnng time.
  
  I'd also imagine it'd be very painful. You get really sensitive after orgasm. Its different for all men, but some just can't handle it because it hurts to continue. I have heard that some girls deal with this too.
  
  

  Quote from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refractory_period_(sex):

  While the refractory period varies widely among individuals, ranging from minutes to days,[2][3][4] most men cannot maintain or achieve an erection during this time, and many perceive a psychological feeling of "satiation" and are temporarily uninterested in further sexual activity; the penis may be hypersensitive and further sexual stimulation may even feel painful during this time frame.[1][4]

  
  
  Honestly, being forced to have sex by a woman sounds just as nightmarish as it is the other way around.

  Uhh what. Is it even possible for your penis to break? I've never heard of anything about it being possible.
