Demand for the US Government, in particular the CDC, to acknowledge the existence of male rape victims.

Created by K.R. on May 23, 2013

We demand the definition of rape defined by the CDC must be changed to include male victims of female rapists. The definition of rape must immediately be expanded to include all instances in which males are forced to penetrate a woman. A majority of Americans believe this is rape. It must also consider every time a man is forced into unwanted sex with physical force and threat of violence to be rape. A majority of Americans believe this to be rape.

Under current definition, 1 in 71 men have been raped; under the definition most reasonable people understand rape to be, 1 in 16 men have been raped. Rape is rape, and it shouldn't matter who the victim is, or who the perpetrator is.
