Re: Confession thread TW: Rape

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah, but do you think it's right to teach people who are obviously not bothered by traume, to feel trauma? I suppose if I tried very hard, I could hammer into my friend's head that he was brutalized and should suffer terror and flashbacks for the rest of his life, but I doubt he would thank me for that.

There is no easy answer to that. If a man tells me he was raped and is traumatized by it, I will believe him of course. But I won't assume that a man is traumatized after learning that something like this happened to him.

No, I think that would be cruel. Even if I believe that someone's rape was a travesty, I think it would be senseless and harmful to force them to believe that they should be traumatized. When you made your original comment, I thought you brought up your example as a way to give evidence to the idea that female on male rape is inherently not as harmful as other types of rape, and I apologize for misconstruing your intent.

Re: Confession thread TW: Rape

I see. No, I don't think any kind of rape if inherently more or less traumatic than any other. Trauma is a very personal thing. But I think that due to the way culture is constructed around rape and sexuality in general, men are less likely to feel traumatized by a nonviolent rape by a female assailant, so I'd wait to hear what a victim has to say before I start offering them words of comfort and the like.
