Why aren't we talking about men getting raped? I don't understand why everyone always omits that entire side of the discussion.


I did mention it, he just chose to ignore it.

You got replies because you started with "Rape isn't a big deal". You were deliberately inflammatory.
Not because you had a valid or interesting point.

Feel free to go back and reread my post if you need tips on how to say the same thing without coming off as a gigantic arse.


So you don't like how I express myself? Great. I don't personally enjoy having you trying to spark an irrelevant discussion with me on every thread I am in but you don't see me complaining about it. Submit a formal complain on the issue if Khalil's "inflammatory" way of bringing forth his not "valid" or not "interesting" points bother you. Mods have been compulsively deleting irrelevant chit-chat so these will be my last words on the issue. Make a writing tips thread or something. :rolleyes:

I did mention it, men getting raped was a focal part of my discussion and when nymh brought it up, I replied accordingly.

Actually, you have complained about it. Multiple times. In several different threads.

You may have mentioned it, but we are not discussing it. It is still centered on the feminist vs. patriarchal view of rape as it relates to women.

Did you get the one where I mentioned that such ethical behavior is more appropriate for a slime sucking pig than a human being? We'd not want to leave that one visible. On happier news, I just sold an ASP for 399K , should tell anyone that information to update the database. Although, and I don't know the right term, item that can not be bought from a shop would not seem to be a priority for the database, the items that can not be bought, it is more of a courtesy. Did someone stop reporting codestone prices for that very same reason.

It's not as common. But many of the issues are the same. Obviously men can't get pregnant, but in exchange they have to deal with the idea that a guy getting raped is funny or brands him as a wimp. Ironically for an issue so closely related to sex, I think that men and women rape victims probably have a lot of the same issues to deal with.

I would guess that for most people, rape is a form of torture, traumatizes roughly as badly, and should be treated equivalently in court. Healing from a beating is mostly a physical health thing, and then a matter of learning to feel safe again--healing from rape is a lot more complicated, because it's considered shameful in many cultures . Even where it's not considered shameful, it's still kept secret. Imagine a random acquaintance in your life. Imagine telling them about getting mugged on the subway. Now imagine telling them about getting raped on the subway by the same person. Which one is socially appropriate? You can talk about getting mugged, and people will be sympathetic and tell you that sucks and I hope they got the guy, and hey, chicks dig scars, right? But if you got raped, they treat you like you're forever damaged and you'll shatter if they so much as look funny at you. They pity you. It's not a nice experience.

To be fair, in some legal definitions, men can't be raped. It's probably why it doesn't get as much media coverage. It's classified as sexual assault.

Hell no, are you crazy? The death penalty is absurd. Do you think killing people is EVER acceptable? No? Ok case closed.

Plus, rape is a crime that has many false convictions. Look at Brian Banks or the Duke Lacrosse incident to name a few...

I believe throw the fuckers in jail and throw away the key!

Let them rot there for the rest of their lives!

No one has the right to attack another person and take away another person's free will that way!
They knew it was wrong when they was doing it and they know its wrong now!

Let the fuckers rot in Jail!

Yes they can.. I know two cases where the male was rapped.

Yes, I think they do deserve capital punishment.
Because, by raping they guarantee their victim to have a horrible life. Haunted by nightmares, low self-esteem and chronic depression.
Which makes the victim to suffer all their life.

So I think capital punishment is a right thing to do!

Yes, because all victims of rape become shivering nervous wrecks for the rest of their lives. Oprah Winfrey is a good example of a rape victim guaranteed to have a horrible life and low self-esteem.

SAY WHAT?!
I just feel like...raping someone (like killing them) is one of the darkest things a human being is capable of doing to another.
It destroys them emotionally, physically and mentally.
I don't want a rapist to live the rest of his days comfortable in their cell or getting executed while their victim is forced to carry on the demented memory of their assault.

Seems to me that your opinion is not that far from his...

I know a guy who was raped when he was 10 by a 17 year old boy

and I know an guy who was drugged, tied up and given viagra.. he said no.. but it still happened... but yes this case can be assault

So people that have been raped will be guaranteed a horrible life?
Wow...


Yes.. Being raped is life changing. It affects who you are and you do suffer from difficulties for the rest of your life, You feel dirty and disgusted on a daily basis and always get flash backs. In a way the attack takes away a major part of you and you will never fill that empty feeling which sits within you.

Okay, yes Ill give you that.

but on topic in my opinion. I do feel the death sentence on rape is adequate

The brittish justice system sucks, Because our prisons are getting full they are releasing rapist and child abusers who have served 3+ years early and giving them new identies...

Does that guy you know suffer from erectile dysfunction?


Erm.. actually.. Thats an odd question because even though it was years ago.. he does get meds from the doctor to help him in that department.

Viagra has little effect on people who neither abuse drugs or suffer from erectile dysfunction. It isn't something a person takes and a magic boner appears, although that is a common misconception. I was just curious.

Why is death for a rape adequate? It's not like they KILLED someone. Some rape victims find it in their hearts to forgive the people who have done them harm. Should those forgiven rapists be murdered for a false sense of justice, too?

You have now made me curious lol Im going to have a chat with him about his meds :p

They may not actually KILLED someone, but they did kill part of that persons life.
Okay, So I suppose it should come down to the events of it happening? So if someone is locked in a room and beaten and raped for months on end then theres no excuse, but if its just a drunken night out of control maybe.. then a prison sentence should be called for and if it happens again then look at death.
As for the wrongly accused.. I would assume the goverment wouldnt kill someone with out 100% evidence or lie detector or something?
