So a relatively well known YouTuber discussed how he might have been raped.

And while not surprising it's sad that the majority of comments are glossing over it or joking about it. He's a rather attractive guy who wanted to abstain from sex until marriage for religious reasons, and people are basically saying he should expect it because he's attractive. He was sexually assaulted by a trusted female friend who stripped him and tried to straddle him as he tried to fight her off while he was extremely drunk. He blacked out and woke up with her in his bed, so she could have very well raped him in his sleep. I don't want to ramble, but I just feel really sad for him that he can't even try to get the message across about how horrible sexual assault is and how a perpetrator can be anyone without people suspicious of his story or how he chooses to cope. It just seems that whenever these conversations arise it becomes less about helping the victims and more about a pissing contest between genders. And I speak as a woman who experienced sexual abuse. Sorry if this went on too long. :/

It's not ok that men can't talk about this. It's important regardless of gender. Making assault about gender is another way of victim blaming. It's disgusting. 😕

That's fucked up. I don't expect basic decency from Youtube, but that's low even for that crowd.

That's utterly horrible. But, sadly, I'm not surprised.

it's funny you say it becomes a pissing contest because the majority of vitriol for male victims of rape (particularly by female assailants) I've ever seen has come from other men who either ridicule him for not enjoying it, for being a "pussy" or for being overpowered by a woman. sexism has profoundly fucked up our society when it comes to sexual assault victims of either gender.
