More Men Raped Than Women (Prison Statistics) According to Justice Department

[s_bushido]

The reason for not including prison rapes in statistics like that seems pretty obvious: it's a totally different environment than average day-to-day living conditions. Somewhat like comparing the danger of working as an accountant vs working in the military or law enforcement.

It's obviously a major problem, though. And it's unlikely to change so long as prisons are less about rehabilitation and more about just caging people like animals.

These numbers don't really change anything for the majority of men, though. As a guy who will almost assuredly never go to prison, my chances of being raped are still pretty damn low. It's disingenuous to compare what might happen to someone in prison with what might happen to someone during their normal, everyday lives. That doesn't diminish the issue of prison rape, it's just not something you can compare 1 to 1 (which seems to be what the OP is trying to do by putting the numbers side by side).

It's estimated that about 20 percent of straight male are sexually assaulted at some point in their lives, 40 percent of Gay males and up to 47 percent of bisexuals. There is a very very large jump in rape victims when we get to Gay and bi women and men both groups that have higher chances of being sexually assaulted than straight men and women. I wonder if even being perceived would increase the chances.

Those sound like shocking numbers. Any sources for that?

And this is why people don't like gays.

I grew up dirt poor and my family pretty much threw me away before I was 12. I still didn't become a criminal. I don't feel any sympathy for those who dom life is hard... suck it up and rise above.

That wasn't "your family", it's the "picture perfect family" you have in your head. Like I would assume things about your own family in a serious debate. Please. You're not on my level to have a serious discussion, especially after I realized what your sig said. Shoo peasant, shoo.

Man, you never miss an opportunity to display your ignorance, do you?

Yeah you can just stop right there. For good.

What? Why? Because they might get raped more often (I have no idea if those statistics are true)? Are you insane?

Gays should be executed.

Method of execution.

Choking on dick.

I'm sorry, that was awful of me, but why on earth do people loathe those whom aren't hetero?

Do they offend you for the very fact they exist?

I'm assuming his response will be along the lines of "because they try to make every topic about them" or something equally ridiculous, if his posts in the Utah thread are anything to go by.

Misleading title all in all. You did forget the keyword "prison".

I've not been around here long but I've seen you just swimming like a shark into these threads looking for any excuse to insert your hostile nonconstructive responses. Stop fishing for arguments about dumb things like your inability to understand a thread title.


Op, I knew this was about prison when I saw the thread title. Didn't even need to enter. That's how common prison rape in the US is. The reason is because these prisons are run by private companies contracted by the states and governments. They don't have to have standards. It will not change. We put these hostile monsters in cages together then don't regulate them. Prison is supposed to rehabilitate people and contain the truly evil. However, it only serves to make people worse when they get out/when they've been in for a while than they ever were going in.

My personal thoughts about gays? They are disgusting evil degenerates who target and corrupt children.

Same could be said about you and corrupting the minds of children with your murderous impulses, so off with your head! I shall not tolerate any of your ilk!

[Stonecloak]

Did anyone ever entertain the idea that the uprising of gay's and lesbians can be natures way of controlling the population? If so then why all the hate?

I mean, heterosexual pedophiles and the like are the highest % of child molesters, so perhaps your anger is misdirected and should go to yourself.

Regardless, homosexuals being born are a naturally occurring thing, it's been observed in nature and well documented in monitoring animals; And we are, after all, just animals.

So this hate doesn't have a basis to me.

Are you perhaps religious, or upwards of the age of 50?

You're trying way too hard. Go away.

The fact the traits have been shown in over a thousand other different animal species and has been a part of human society since before we could read or write and was actually encouraged in the old gladiator days means nothing?

Me personally, I am a straight man, but as far as I am concerned, if that is what they are into, let them have at it, they aren't hurting anyone at all as long as both of them are consenting adults.

People just don't know how to get over themselves.

A gay guy showed my son how to do the Macorina, and caused me to listen to the damn song for 3 or 4 months because my son thought it was funny. Maybe this dude is onto something
