Man Rape on the rise

[Andun]

I can only imagine that it's mousy J men with fat wives who are taking this kind of abuse. However with the rise of the feminist age and one sided perspectives that view woman as the perpetual victim and man as the perpetual offender I think it's about time that male rights get taken seriously. Japan is behind the curve on this one, but in some western countries the man has become a second rate citizen to his female counterpart. And that is hardly a picture of equality is it?

Japan's battered men suffer abuse in silence

As in many surveys, numbers and percentages are abundant. But for me, it was that little 3.4 at the bottom of page 21 that stood out more than any other: 3.4 percent of married men in Japan say that their spouses have forced them to engage in sexual relations against their will. And that is down from 4.3 percent reported three years ago. Improvement is apparently being made: Married men in Japan are essentially being raped less by their wives.

Why? Why is spousal violence against men seemingly being ignored by the press and the government bureau that conducts this survey? When I put this very question to the Gender Equality Bureau, I was told that even though men are included in the sample, the purpose of this research is to protect women from DV. Women.

the rape statistic is ridiculous but the domestic violence statistic is troubling and the way the "gender equality bureau" handled that report is definitely questionable

that being said nothing connected to the JP government will ever be useful nor capable of change so this report will do and change nothing

I once woke up around 2AM to find a J-girl riding me on my big brass bed. I couldn't really scream rape since I had invited her to my love shack and had unsuccessfully been trying to get her legs-up since midnight. All those busted moves and the alcohol must've made me pass out. But I guess it goes to prove that if a J-girl agrees to come up for 'tea' it's almost impossible not to have sex with her.

That's nothing compared to this:

About two in five of all victims of domestic violence are men, contradicting the widespread impression that it is almost always women who are left battered and bruised, a new report claims.

Men assaulted by their partners are often ignored by police, see their attacker go free and have far fewer refuges to flee to than women, says a study by the men's rights campaign group Parity.

The charity's analysis of statistics on domestic violence shows the number of men attacked by wives or girlfriends is much higher than thought. Its report, Domestic Violence: The Male Perspective, states: "Domestic violence is often seen as a female victim/male perpetrator problem, but the evidence demonstrates that this is a false picture."

Data from Home Office statistical bulletins and the British Crime Survey show that men made up about 40% of domestic violence victims each year between 2004-05 and 2008-09, the last year for which figures are available. In 2006-07 men made up 43.4% of all those who had suffered partner abuse in the previous year, which rose to 45.5% in 2007-08 but fell to 37.7% in 2008-09.

Similar or slightly larger numbers of men were subjected to severe force in an incident with their partner, according to the same documents. The figure stood at 48.6% in 2006-07, 48.3% the next year and 37.5% in 2008-09, Home Office statistics show.

I thought this was going to be a thread about drunk Buchos forcefully offering money to have sex with white men at sleazy late night Japanese bars.

I feel cheated.

A post like this is just begging for Jinsei to return. Oh no!

Don't make a complaint to the police - you might get deported. Either that or locked up at the
Funny Farm getting force fed lots of happy pills every day .... hmmmmm
