Hi friends, I have been following on the news and an interesting thing just happened. It was a case of a man who was raped.
A discussion has erupted between me and my wife. One saying its possible while the other opposing.
Please give your thoughts. Can a man be raped?

Of course a man can be raped.
I'm struggling to understand why anyone would think a man couldn't be raped

Yes. Some inmates were raped by their fellow inmates.

It depends . . what I believe is if a man is raped by a woman . . it is not rape. If a man is raped by a man; it is rape.

I'd say depends, but yea a man can be raped both anally from fellow inmates in prison or other maniacs, and from a woman too.
JJ said it, if a man becomes sexualy stimulated that doesn't mean that he actually WANTS it to happen. But i think most of the cases men being raped is by another men, not women.

No one's going to believed it. I mean, indecent proposal was hard to believed, how much more in reality.

When I think of rape, I think of someone being held down against their will, and although it can happen, I can't really see it happening to a man, who is normally stronger than a woman. He would need three women holding him down for her to do that to him.

She still stands with an idea that man cannot be raped by a woman.

Rape is a common occurrence in prison.

In prison yes cos men r overpowered and sodomized or other acts are done to them. What of a man suffering the same from a woman. Can there be rape from woman to a man?

the fact that he complained, that means the suspect did it against his will. Anyway, in our country, its not only penetration that defines the rape.

Yes, a male gender could be raped. When it comes to rape, the victim has no specification of gender, age, background, etc. Sad truth!

Yes, a man can be raped.Having forced intimacy with a man is rape.
