Rape - Masculine Angle

It seems we've marked out today to talk about rape cases. Like we know rape is having carnal knowledge of one without one's consent. Once rape is mentioned the victims that comes to mind are the ladies. Well this post is centered on male victims of rape.

Shocking gang rape in dirty office When a man complains of being raped he is often made fun of and dismissed as a joker whose sole aim is to gain attention. We forget that men get raped, little boys also gets raped. Little boys sometimes gets violated sexually by ladies or even by older men. We hear of cases where a little boy is violated by their house-help or aunties or cousins. The problem is that nobody tends to take them seriously as they take female rape cases. When a female is raped she MOST times (emphasis on most cause it is not always the case) withdraws into her shell and sees men as evil, some even turn lesbians for fear of men. Whereas when a young boy is constantly raped he OFTENTIMES (emphasis on oftentimes as it may not always be the case) gets addicted to sex when he gets older, he gets promiscuous and always has dis urge to have sex. While people sympathize wit young boys the grown raped men gets no love or pity 4rm people as he is often accused of liking it if not that he wouldn't have had and maintained an erection. Late last year a man came to court with a case of being raped by numerous women who threatened to kill him with dangerous objects if he didn't comply. The court made a mockery of him and dismissed him saying how impossible it was. He got no justice and had to live with the psychological trauma (yes we guys have psychological traumas too, it's not only peculiar to only girls). Another case I read about happened in South Africa, where a man was raped at gun point, was rubbed a cream made solely to make a man retain his erection for hours, and raped him continually for hours without protection till he passed out. He was later confirmed to have gotten HIV from those ladies. I recently heard a story of a young boy raped to death by some girls funny thing is his sister joined in raping him, according to them the boy was too handsome.
 

When a man is raped the reaction you get from people is, "that serves him right", "maybe he got raped by angry ex-girlfriends", "the guy na D'banj wey do go rape"? "Make he talk true wetin he go do", "God is paying him back for his bad deeds". Some guys would say, "dat guy na idiot, wetin person dey luk 4 he dey complain, d guy weak joor". U see no sympathy and no love 4 a male rape victim. As we fight against rape, let's include men also because we too are fragile *rolling my eyes* at least some of us. Should we also blame the men for dressing indecently? SAY NO TO RAPE
