Can a Man Be Raped?

[SIZE=+1]Myth: Getting an erection or ejaculation during sexual assault means you "really wanted it" or consented to it.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=+1]Reality: This is one of the things that can cause male rape survivors a lot of confusion and guilt when they do not know how things work. For a start I can honestly say that getting an erection shows nothing other than your body responds how it is suppose to do. It is a totally normal thing to happen and has nothing to do with desire. Have you never been on a bus, or sat in an office meeting, and it has gone hard all by it's self for no reason ?[/SIZE]
[SIZE=+1]Basically, unless you have some medical condition that stops you then you will get an erection when it is manipulated. It is a result of stimulation, and it does not matter if you do not want it to happen or not. There is little you can do to stop it most of the time.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=+1]Sadly, some males become confused and think an erection equals arousal equals them wanting it. In reality all it means is that part of the body has nerve endings that respond to touch and that touch can be wanted or not wanted, pleasant or non pleasant. With lubricant you will have even less choice as to how it responds to touch. It is the same as the body will respond to someone tickling you and you will probably laugh, but if it is done at a time or by a person you do not want to tickle you it will still respond.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=+1] If you were penetrated, the pressure in the prostate gland (see diagram below) also will cause an erection. Anyone who has ever had a DRE (short for Digital Rectal Exam) of the prostate at their doctors will know that getting an erection often happens during the examination. [/SIZE]

[SIZE=+1]Now as far as ejaculation goes, again this is a very normal thing to have happened. In fact, the rapist will very often go out of their way to make sure that you do ejaculate, in order to try to make you more ashamed, (adds to their dominate feeling of power) and also they know it will likely reduce your chances of reporting the crime. First off, it is because it is a normal reaction to stimulation. Second, the pressure on the prostate will, by it's self, release some fluid, making the penis more sensitive to that stimulation. In fact, it is possible for a doctor to obtain a semen sample during a DRE. Pressure on the seminal vesicle will likewise release a lot of fluid, and could resemble ejaculation to some extent, although may feel different. [/SIZE]​
[SIZE=+1]
Seminal Vesicles: Two glands which provides about two-thirds of the fluid which makes up the semen. These are located to the left and right of the prostate. Output of the seminal vesicle mixes with the sperm from the vas deferens and flows through a duct which then passes the fluid through the prostate to the urethra.​
[/SIZE]
[SIZE=+1]One other thing to remember, is that ejaculation against your will, and an orgasm when having a wanted sexual encounter are, two totally different things.[/SIZE]​
Male Rape myths and facts, the rape of men



Interesting, and makes sense.


Since generally a man is stronger than a woman, he could stop it easier unless bound, wouldn't that be correct?

Since women can take self-defense classes and know to hit a man in the groin, carry protective weapons, or otherwise defend themselves, they should be able to easily stop most attackers, yes?

Many rapists blame the victim or claim that the victim must have wanted it in order to have not fought back or to have shown a physiological response (hell, the Jews/Christians demand she die for it if she's not a virgin).

I am highly suspicious of your intentions at this point.

Not just anally- a woman could vaginally have sexual intercourse with an erect man against his will.

Getting an erection is not always willful- and even if the erection and foreplay were willful, it doesnt mean that sex itself is willful.

No means no, in EVERY case.
 
Yes, it is possible. I don't understand why some are struggling with this. If a woman has a gun, knife, or overpowers him in martial arts or some other method so that she can have sex with him against his will and consent, that is rape.
 
He certainly can be sexually assaulted and harassed. But I have to admit, I am confused on how it could actually happen considering mechanics.

Are you implying that unless a man can acheive an erection and enter his rapist vagina, then it is not rape?

If so, that means a man who cannot acheive erection cannot rape a woman.
Not in the least. I'm wondering if that specific situation can actually happen in a woman raping a man, though.

What if a woman subdues a man somehow (drugs, alcohol, assault) and then ties him up. Then when he wakes up in a bound state, she manipulates his genitalia manually and orally. And maybe he does not erect or ejaculate...but he is still raped.

No insertion.

Was there already a topic on this? If so I am sorry for the repeat. Also, so sorry for annoying you. I do wonder why you read it if it was so annoying.

I had no real position. After so much discussion on Polanski, it came to mind. That is pretty much it.
I asked b/c I wanted to know what people thought. After the few replies my position now would be that yes, a man can be raped by a woman.

Hope I answered your questions. :rolleyes:
 
I dont understand why so many people discount date rape as a possibility.

All humans are capable of struggling/ fight or flight reaction- and not every man who is raped is even going to react in a "fight or flight" way anyways. Sometimes people just lay there after saying no, because they do not know what to do, or are in a state of emotional shock of the betrayal.

Well, technically, there would be insertion- insertion of the penis into the mouth counts as rape.

And a man does not have to be awake to get an erection, lol

If you think that, then you need to get the wax out of your ears. You are hearing wrong.
Look above as to why I posted it.

So if there is no insertion, then there is no rape? Is that the law?
 
Xotoxi- never mind- you already said that, lol..

Well put. (and if he does ejaculate or enjoy it, anyways- it doesnt matter- its still rape, lol)

Yes it did, thanks. I was slightly concerned that someone might have changed their mind in the next morning, assuming that you are indeed female. :tongue:

Or, allegedly, even alive

[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][FONT=Verdana,][FONT=Verdana,][FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]The germ of what became the legend of Dillinger’s schlong seems to have been this photo taken shortly after he was shot and killed by the FBI. And hey, you can see how rumors get started. Now, I know what you’re thinking, and yes, it’s a little known scientific fact that a man can have an erection after his death. It’s known colloquially as “angel lust.” It’s even been featured on the television series Six Feet Under and, unforgettably, in the “you just fucked a dead guy” scene from the movie Clerks. Death erections can happen in two ways. Surprisingly, neither one of which involves rigor mortis. Rigor mortis only affects muscles and your muscle-of-love is really just a spongy tube. What makes this spongy tube hard is pressurized blood. So either the body had an erection prior to death that hasn’t drained, or the body was left in such a position that blood and fluids flowed by gravity into the penis. But chances are, as soon as he was placed on his back the fluid would drain away. I say chances because there are conditions where the blood might not drain, but we won’t go into them here.

Why would you be suspicious? I gave you no reason whatsoever to be. I asked questions.
And already said I agree a man can be raped. So what is your problem?
 
And I mean by a woman. Are there any cases where a woman has been prosecuted and or convicted of such a crime?

Is is physically possible to rape a man??

(and not talking age of consent in this thread)


Discuss..

Yes. Statutory rape is still rape. Female school teacher with underage male student, add penetration and viola, it's rape.

If your question is asking only about non-statutory rape, then I guess the question is "if he gets a hard-on, can it really be unwanted sexual inercourse?" The answer (jmho) is still yes, but I doubt there are very many such reported cases.
