No, it's not a thing.


Male victims are marginalized and ridiculed because of a social culture that exists where rape is pervasive and considered normal. You might call such a culture "rape culture", because it's a handy term for a complicated thing to have to say.

They're not marginalized for the same reason female victims are.

The issue is that in rape culture, a male's consent is automatically assumed.

What?

You could just read the sentence exactly as it's written because it's a complete sentence.


But with the inappropriate apostrophe, it becomes one of the two I posted and neither one makes sense.

Incidentally, is Harvey Weinstein in jail yet? Is Bill Cosby? Or - like most rape scenarios - is the alleged suspect impossible to bring a conviction against because it's simply that difficult to prove beyond reasonable doubt? We don't actually put most rapists in jail. Most of them don't even go to court. Rapists usually do get protected.


Also are you saying that rape culture is the fact that our laws have limitations and that proof is necessary to put them in prison?

Starting a sentence with "but" is improper as well. If you're going to attempt to correct my grammar, then you shouldn't be posting improperly yourself.

Not necessarily. I did assume that authority, but it might not have been in that moment.

No one's asking "where's the proof?" in this instance. But that's the drumbeat in nearly every case where a woman claims she was assaulted.

Cogitate on that.

Or

Or

Or maybe Kevin Spacey not denying the allegations and trying to use his sexuality as a shield has something to do with people not being sceptic.

Maybe this being part of a wave of sexual scandal revelation in which people have not been sceptic, and most of which involve female victims, there's a pattern here that goes against your analysis.

This has never been the case for me.
