You seem to concede that most victims of rape are men.

More men are raped in the US than women, figures on prison assaults reveal... [View all] Upton Oct 2013 OP

Maybe rape will be much less funnier now to some of us. marble falls Oct 2013 #1

I guess the OP went so far over your head that it wasn't even visible. nt Bonobo Oct 2013 #3

Who EVER said it was funny? Warren DeMontague Oct 2013 #4

Yes. Bonobo Oct 2013 #5

Gotcha. Warren DeMontague Oct 2013 #6

I've certainly seen it on DU Major Nikon Oct 2013 #11

Yeah, but less so lately.The community has, by and large, figured out that it's not okay. Warren DeMontague Oct 2013 #12

Count on the conservatives to condone prison rape. radicalliberal Oct 2013 #2

I don't believe it's just conservatives.. Upton Oct 2013 #7

And not just prison. Bonobo Oct 2013 #8

All true.. Upton Oct 2013 #9

Some seem to think pointing that out is the SAME as denying that there is sexism Bonobo Oct 2013 #10

For a crime that is mostly committed by men, this makes perfect sense, actually CreekDog Oct 2013 #13

Then lets talk about the victims. lumberjack_jeff Oct 2013 #14

No, are you saying in society as a whole they are most victims? CreekDog Oct 2013 #15

Are you saying male rape victims don't deserve to be called victims? Behind the Aegis Oct 2013 #16

Absolutely not. Male victims of rape are victims CreekDog Oct 2013 #17

That's good to hear. Behind the Aegis Oct 2013 #18

I agree with BTA. It seems you're reading some subtext into the OP Warren DeMontague Oct 2013 #19

This group is based on subtext CreekDog Oct 2013 #22

I don't think that's the subtext in the group, at all. Warren DeMontague Oct 2013 #23

My problem is about the same as if there were a "Whites group" on DU CreekDog Oct 2013 #24

You sort of contradict your own point, there. Warren DeMontague Oct 2013 #25

Yep, that's about the long and short of it. Bonobo Oct 2013 #31

I would consider blocking you from the Group, but you are doing such an effective job Bonobo Oct 2013 #30

Someone has to vanquish the boogeyman Major Nikon Nov 2013 #36

And boognish the vanquiman, too! Warren DeMontague Nov 2013 #38

That's what the article says and the math isn't all that difficult Major Nikon Oct 2013 #20

I'm not really sure what you're getting at.. Upton Oct 2013 #21

are most rapes committed by men? CreekDog Oct 2013 #26

So because the victims are men too, they deserve no consideration? n/t lumberjack_jeff Nov 2013 #33

I would say that certainly seems to be the implication.. opiate69 Nov 2013 #34

yes, they do and i'm sure you agree as demonstrated by your many posts against rape of women CreekDog Nov 2013 #35

Ad hominem. Weak. lumberjack_jeff Nov 2013 #39

you want a medal because you never posted an eyeroll smiley about a woman being raped? CreekDog Nov 2013 #41

Civil rights laws aren't gender specific Major Nikon Nov 2013 #42

Nobody needs to get a medal for not posting an eyeroll in response to rape ProudToBeBlueInRhody Nov 2013 #43

why don't you post a poll in GD asking whether DU thinks prison rape is wrong CreekDog Oct 2013 #27

You can post your own push poll.. Upton Oct 2013 #28

Who said anything about what feminists do or don't think on the issue? Major Nikon Oct 2013 #29
