South African Epidemic Of Schoolboy Sexual Abuse - not to worry, though...

[LJ_Reloaded]

They're just males, after all.

July 29, 2008 — By the age of 18 years, two in every five South African schoolboys report being forced to have sex, mostly by female perpetrators. A new study, reported in BioMed Central's open access journal International Journal for Equity in Health, reveals the shocking truth about endemic sexual abuse of male children that has been suspected but until now only poorly documented.

Neil Andersson and Ari Ho-Foster, of the CIET trust in Johannesburg, carried out the research in 1,200 schools across the country at the end of 2002. According to Andersson "This study sought to document the prevalence of sexual violence among school-going males. We found a marked difference between the provinces of South Africa, with the least economically developed province, Limpopo, suffering the highest rates and the most developed area, Western Cape, the lowest". There were also systematic differences between rural and urban areas in frequency and type of perpetrator.

Some 28% of victims said a non-family member or teacher was the perpetrator. Another 28% had been forced by a fellow student, while 20% had been abused by a teacher and 18% by an adult family member.
The authors warn that "the likely consequence of all this for South African society is the multiplication of sexual abuse, since it is well established that people who have been sexually abused are more likely to become abusers themselves. One in ten schoolboys who took part in the study admitted they had forced sex on someone else".

maybe because 1 in 4 south african men admit to raping a woman or girl

key word there...admit

http://www.unisa.ac.za/news/index.php/2013/02/south-africa-the-worlds-rape-capital/

and then your own article says that one in ten schoolboys admits to forcing someone else

yes, it's certainly a horrible problem with female teachers... but you dont seem to have the slightest shed of outrage to the absolutely massive tidal wave that of rape sweeping the country when it comes to men

go figure

There is list of US female teachers who abused boys, youngest was 12 most 14 some 15 to 16 year olds. Some of these teachers appeared on talk shows defend what they did and since male children that no harm could come because of their actions. I guess boys will be boys. What happens if they are wrong?

And here we have yet another feminist actively DISMISSING and TRIVIALIZING the rape of boys.

you refuse to ackknowledge the epidemic of the rape of women in South Africa so much that it's called the rape capital of the world

you refuse to acknowledge that the boys in your very own study admit to commiting rape at a rate that is the highest in the world

at no point do you mention the sheer massive numbers of women that are raped every year

you refuse to acknowledge that I said it was a horrible situation that needs fixing

and yet I'm the one dismissing rape?

your selective outrage strikes again?


why is rape only important to you when it involves men being victims ?

A prominent MRA on the importance of opening domestic violence shelters for men so this shit stops happening to men





Anybody who claims to care about men, but doesn't scour feminism pretty strongly on a regular basis, is either a damned liar or a lazy, muddled fool with his head up his ass. There is simply no way you can care about men if you are not attacking or at least consciously undermining feminism in one way or another.

And if I absolutely had to make the choice, I would even say that agitation is MORE important than activism. Yes, I would rather have a thousand people loudly slagging off feminism in my town, than to have one men's DV shelter open while nobody makes a squeak about feminism! And you can quote me on that.

you're denying that your own article states that one in ten school boys in south africa admits to raping a girl

you're denying that one in four south african men admits to raping a girl or woman

I'm not talking about the MRA..I'm talking about South Africa. and it';s epidemic of rape which you brought up

The facts are that 20% of boys in South Africa are raped, mostly by women.

You are trying DESPERATELY to dispute that and then also derail the issue. Not with me you don't. We stay on topic. You know I am EXPONENTIALLY more tenacious than you are.

and the facts are that 10% of school boys admit to raping

and the facts are that 25% of all men in South Africa admit to raping women

I also said that its horrible what is happening, you seem to keep foregtting that

what I'm showing is that you are trivializing a vast majority in order to only bring attention to your only concern when it comes to rape

be tenancious as you like, it won't change that you are attempting to minimize that vastness of this crime for your own gender politics

Nobody talks about boys being raped. You have like 99% of this entire website that'll let you complain about females being raped. Yet you have always got to interject "but girls!!!!" into every discussion about what happens to men. The world talks about the poor put upon female like 99% of the time. You damned SJW's don't spend even 10 seconds talking about what happens to men.. except to say "but GIRLS!!!"

This thread is about boys who are being victimized. Please take your "but GIRLS!!!!" to the other 99% of the site.

LJ, looking at your comments on this thread (and a few others today), I'm questioning if you have a problem with the issue or just that it is women doing bad things to men?

BBS was trying to draw attention to the fact that rape is an epidemic in South Africa (honestly it would be very naive of anyone to assume that it was only happening to women).

I understand the shock value behind your thread title as well as your OP, and your passion for your cause is commendable, however I took offence to your insinuation that people don't care because it is happening to males.

How does it matter whether it was male/female that did it or if the victim was male/female? It is a crime whichever way you look at it. Investigative agencies don't receive separate funding to tackle cases involving female victims than they do involving male victims (as far as I know... or is this a lead in to a report/study you've discovered which proves just that?).
