Actually, I'm pretty sure they do. Skepticism, questioning of their sexual preferences etc. People of all genders who report experiences of sexual assault can suffer for it.

- follower 16y ago> To anywhere near the extent that women do? Be serious. I wasn't claiming that it happened anywhere near the extent that it does to women. I was questioning the previous commenter's claim that there was no history of men being assaulted by women and experiencing skepticism etc when they tell the community about it. Because sexual assault isn't about gender it's about power. > But you're gesturing a dripping faucet while others are pointing at a gaping hole in the roof. I was disputing the claim that the dripping faucet did not exist and stating that both dripping faucets and gaping holes in the roof are bad. It wasn't my intention to minimize the issue of sexual assault by men against women--how would you suggest re-wording my response in future?
