You haven't heard of it because the reporting and coverage is biased, not because it doesn't happen. That's similar to the situation with sexual harassment, sexual assault, and domestic violence. It's not that men aren't often the victims of these things (studies report that they are, at nearly the same rate as women[1, 2]). It's that men rarely report these things, and when they do, receive little sympathy, coverage, or justice. 1: http://www.slate.com/articles/double_x/doublex/2014/04/male_rape_in_america_a_new_study_reveals_that_men_are_sexually_assaulted.html http://www.slate.com/articles/double_x/doublex/2014/04/male_... 2: http://domesticviolencestatistics.org/men-the-overlooked-victims-of-domestic-violence/ http://domesticviolencestatistics.org/men-the-overlooked-vic...
