Illustrating the emergence of male rape as a social and legal issue, this book highlights the myths and misconceptions that keep this a hidden crime.This book researches a topic that remains highly taboo and under-researched. It draws on experiences of male survivors of rape. It explores attitudes of the police in dealing with this sensitive issue. It considers the role of the media in fuelling myths about male rape. Focusing on male-on-male rape, this book looks at the common myths surrounding this taboo issue, including the idea that 'men who rape other men must be homosexual' and that 'real men can't be raped'. It also reveals that men are not only raped in prison, as is commonly believed, and that they suffer similar trauma to female survivors of rape.
