    Default Men being raped would YOU tell the police?

    So the thread in PM made me wonder if you were raped as a man by another man/men would you report it to the police?

    Logically its the right and important thing to do, but if it were me? Hell no. I'm a 6'+ 200lb+ man, trying to imagine that conversation would be almost impossible. If I knew who it was or where they were I might well kill them, but if such information made it out into the public you would immediately lose status.

    Added, despite me disagreeing that rape has nothing to do with sex and its about dominance blah blah, I don't see it as a sexual violation of myself. I don't associate such an activity with sex. It would really piss me off, but so would getting beat up. I wouldn't feel violated, I'd feel violent.
    "When I die, I want to die peacefully in my sleep, like Fidel Castro, not screaming in terror, like his victims."

    My shameful truth.

    I voted yes I would report and no to counseling.

    In all fairness, being one of the rapers was not an option though.



    Seriously though- I agree that if made public, a man being raped can be seen as a loss of status, but then you have to look at it like how women who are raped in the muslim world are sometimes viewed. A victim of an unwilling violation of their body is still a victim, and to have anything inserted in to the man butt is definitely an act of rape.

    Being violated is like putting your balls on my face while I'm passed out on your couch or something. Rape is rape.

    Lay down their life; they do not hate

    You know I for one find all the macho chest-beating that's already been thrown around here pretty amusing. Internet Tough Guys much ?

    I don't care about my dignity or pride I would want those bastards in jail, so yes I would tell the police.

    I would also seek counseling, although a more correct term would be 'Anger Management' to stop myself from killing them.

    I, for one, can't think of a single reason to *not* both sic the cops on the buggers and apply for counseling ASAP...

    I don't really know. It would depend of various things like how the rape exactly occurred and what lead to it etc. I don't think it would mean anything to me except that I'd propably be embarrassed. I don't think I would have the guts to tell the police though.

    For raping me, most people won't report it because of their dignity and pride, they wouldn't want to admit they've been raped by another man.

    I would proboly also just kill him.
    You have a certain mentality, a "you vs them" and i know it is hard to see, but it is only your imagination which makes up enemies everywhere. I haven't professed anything but being neutral so why Do you feel the need to defend yourself from me?. Truly What are you defending? when there is nobody attacking?

    Now there's a brilliant plan.

    Actually Bubba got killed for the same reason, I voted yes I would tell the cops, but as for counseling, I'd probably pass on that, they've never really helped me, I'm far better at dealing with my own problems, should they be created from the event of course.

    my rational part say that i would report it to the police and let justice do its course, but if something like that happened i think that i would be driven to try to kill the bastard and don't report anything so that hopefully i could not get caught.
    The idea of someone raping me and then, even if caught, going out free after just a couple years behind bars would make me mad.

    wow, images like that shower scene from 'american history x' come to mind...

    heh, but whut can u do?

    report him obviously but at least in australia they keep the victim's name censored and way from the press so it's better that way. plus you wouldnt have to confront him in person in court.

    All these people saying you'd kill the guy

    Reporting it would be useless. I guess there's all you can do apart from hoping you see him again.

    just a bit of trivia about male rape;

    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 
    the thing about rape, especially male rape is that with the rapists penis going into the victim's rectum, it tends to press against and stimulate the victim's prostate-thereby generating a physiological erection.
    this leads to victims mistakenly believing that they enjoyed the rape when in fact the violation was actually a physiological response
