because there are enough men out there willing to have cheap sex with us when we are in the mood. As to you becoming a victim... go up and ask a drunk woman.

Women do rape men, and we're seeing more and more men come forward with their stories. One incident springs to mind from Edmonton, Alberta, where a woman kidnapped a male neighbour, locked him in her basement for days, tortured him, sodomized him with the leg of a foot-stool, then killed him. She was caught and emprisoned and, naturally, the Elizabeth Fry Society is actively lobbying for her early parole.
Also we're hearing more and more about cases like the Mary-Kay Latourneau affair where female teachers are using their positions to manipulate boys into sexual relationships.

So, yeah, men are sexually assaulted, although there is the opinion out there that it's not all that bad. People seem to think that men are so sexually charged that they should be thankful for the incident, that if they complain, they're less than a man, and that's if they're even believed.
Another mistaken impression that I've seen time and time again on Yahoo Answers is the belief that a man is concenting to a sexual encounter if he has an erection... that men are mentally able to control their erections. This is simply not true. Women who have been sexually assaulted sometimes self-lubricate and even orgasm. This used to be used by defence lawyers to infer that the victim consented to sex. Not the case. Getting an erection, just like a woman lubricating, is a physical response to a physical stimulus, and cannot be controlled. If I were able to mentally control my erections, early adolescence would have been a LOT less embarassing.

I think the reason is two fold:
1.) It's hard to find unwilling participants, as the previous answers mention.
2.) Women are not attracted that much to the physical side of the process, but they need an emotional context most of the time. Sometimes they don't and then we get lucky.

Look out for times when they don't!

Good luck.

Generally men are larger, more intimidating, and more agressive than woman. That deters women from raping men. Also, men, being more agressive sexually, are more apt to commit the crime of rape than women.
In answer to your second question, I have no idea.

Men are generally stronger... so no chance of a woman being able to rape a man by herself. I've heard of (aunt is a lawyer) cases where a group of woman (6 to 7) have raped one man -- they had to tie him down to do it.

Man never really report it either, because they're too humiliated.

Simple, men are stronger. Women who control men must do so with psychology. Men can easily over power women with muscular strength.

Because rape is not fueled by the desire for sex, but that for power and control. Some men feel that they must posses others, and physically demonstrate their power and superiority. It seems that women are more mental and emotional, and less physical in their approach to conflict/dominance.

Men strong, women weaker. It's that simple.
