We also need to move away from female entitlement. Roughly half of all rapes are female-on-male, but this is pretty much invisible in our culture, partially because the CDC doesn't define what women do to be rape: It's "being made to penetrate", which isn't counted the same way. This isn't even getting into the problem of America's true rape culture: Male-only prisons.

Gendering sex crimes, making it seem as if it's a female problem, erases those experiences, and denies the suffering of the people who went through them.
Even if male rape was rare, it wouldn't matter. Rape is a problem regardless of how often it happens. I'm amazed I have to say this, but feminists apparently aren't saying it, so someone needs to.
