An excellent blog posting by John Markley at The Superfluous Man on Cheerleading for rapists:

The public’s attitude towards men raped by other men (in prison or otherwise) is almost uniformly dreadful; raped men are either a punch line or objects of contempt, to the extent they are acknowledged at all. This is not surprising, since many supporters of both traditionalist/patriarchal sex roles and many supporters of feminism have an interest in ignoring, denying, or belittling the issue. Well, the attitude towards victims of female-on-male rape actually manages the difficult feat of being worse.


I want to thank John for treating my experience with dignity and respect - so thank you John.  You can read the rest here.
