can men really be raped?

Question

I am no muscle man. If you lined up 100 women, there are probably 8 or so who are stronger than me. So there are some women who could "overpower" me. That being said, I really can't ever imagine being scared of a woman, even if she was stronger and tried to rape me. I just don't think the strength difference between me and a woman would ever be so great where I 'd truly be in fear of my life. EVen if faced with a stronger woman, I feel like I could bite, kick and go "hog wild" to escape.

However, if a really strong guy attacked and tried to rape me, I think I would have a hard time escaping, no matter what dirty tricks I tried.

Any other guys feel this way?

Answer 1

why?

Answer 2

I would think it is more common, when a male is raped, for it to have been by another male, unless the male (rapee) is between 10 and 15 years old, or else drugged into submission. I suppose it might be possible if you were threatened sober at gunpoint, but most females wouldn't bother.
In some states, males 16 or 17 who have consenting sex with females over age 21 it is considered statutory rape, but that depends on the local laws.

Answer 3

Yes they can. There are different tactics to subdue men and women. I think there are men that may NOT be able to escape even if they do try, hence the stigma of reporting it (men don't want to be seen as weak) and lack of coverage (media-wise) for this crime when it does happen.

But you raise a very good point about how it is to be overpowered. Unfortunately since I have been raped, I was held down and had a bandanna shoved in my mouth so I couldn't scream while having my arms held down. And I did kick.

Answer 4

I'm not a guy, but anyone can be "raped"...this is a violation of personal space, and males have orafices that can be violated just as women do.

More often than not, men are rapists...women, on the other hand, don't need to use that kind of force for control & conquer...we can seduce...this allows compliance, which negates violation...and you guys are usually quick to comply. LOL

Physical strength is an advantage to rapists, but usually their strongest tool is fear...this is the main factor of their doing what they do...fear will weaken even the strongest person, making them easy prey.

Answer 5

I doubt whether the type of incidents described here can be called rape. Women may lure men and use them for sexuality. For sex two things are a must. The male organ should be erected and lubrication should be there in the female organ. Without both, penis can not penetrate inside. Suppose a woman compulsorily makes a man to insert his penis inside her vagina, it is not possible because there won't be erection when he is afraid. When a man rapes a woman, he touches her breasts and forplays with her clitoris by which there will be lubrication though she may not enjoy. Then the rapist can easily put his organ inside. But if a woman rapes a man she can not make the penis erected without which there can not be any penetration. Hence no chance for a woman to rape a man.

Answer 6

Yea...see, that's what women think. We think we can scratch and bite our way out, but it just doesn't work that way. If you're strapped down, sedated, have a gun to your head or a knife to your throat, you're damned right you'd perform if a woman wanted you to. She could also spike some food/drink with viagra. But mainly, rape happens to men by other men. And it's very common. Honestly, never be too confident because weapons make a huge difference in these situations.

Answer 7

Men can be coerced into having sex against their will by a woman, and to me that is rape. For example, I have a friend who was spending the night at another friend's house. The friend's mother entered the room and told him he could either have sex with her or she would tell her husband that he made a pass at her and have her husband beat the **** out of him. He had sex with her but he was not willing (he just didn't want to get beaten).

And men can't really control whether they get an erection or not, so even if a guy is erect, that doesn't mean he wants to have sex. Women get wet sometimes just because...it doesn't mean they want to have sex either. The human body has a mind of its own.

Answer 8

Ever seen Pulp Fiction? It would be harder for man on man rape. Women are strong individuals though. Don't put it past yourself that a woman can take you. You have nothing to worry about if you are this alert about it anyhow. I know I am not a guy and it was a question for that of the male perspective but I thought I should let you know that I was a victim of rape from both sides of the fence. Females are fierce but men are heartless. It isn't pleasant and I don't wish it on anyone. I hope you stay out of prison. Have a wonderful night.

Answer 9

It's not possible for a woman to rape a man. Yes a big bunch of women could target an man but that never happen as most women would feel too guilty. Men raping other men...well thats something diffrent and one reason men should avoid prison!

Answer 10

You can be woken up from sleep and find a women on you.Thats sex without consent.I know and it was a problem.A man becomes erect many times while sleeping.If it is done in darkness you dont realise who it is or realise what is happening,the tendancy is to go with it.I lived with a women like that,never again.

Only recently, the police confirmed the incident of a 24-year old man, who after being abducted at gunpoint by three women traveling in a white BMW, was forced to kneel face down on the back seat of the car. He was prevented from looking up and was only allowed to look about him when he was inside the house. For three days, the young man was kept in the house and gang raped
