Studies I’ve read for work suggest that around 1 in 10 men have experienced unreported sexual abuse. Same studies suggest the statistic is 1 in 5 women, which is much worse, but it does a disservice to male victims to suggest ten percent is ‘negligible.’
(as someone whose crotch was aggressively groped by a female in college and never reported I’m admittedly a bit sensitive)
7 is about rape. You talk about sexual abuse. They are not synonyms.
Also, in the link above the following passage might interest you:
As McIntosh points out, men also tend to be unaware of their own privileges as men. In the spirit of McIntosh’s
essay, I thought I’d compile a list similar to McIntosh’s, focusing on the invisible privileges benefitting men.
Due to my own limitations, this list is unavoidably U.S.-centric. I hope that writers from other cultures will create
new lists, or modify this one, to reflect their own experiences.
Good list but 7 seems wrong.
