Male rape: offenders and victims
AN Groth and AW Burgess
In an analysis of 22 cases of male rape in a community setting, the gender
of the victim did not appear to be of primary importance to some of the
rapists, but for others, males appeared to be specific intended targets,
and the rapists' assaults were an effort to deal with unresolved and
conflictual aspects of their lives. For all offenders the sexual assault
was an act of retaliation, an expression of power, and an assertion of
their strength and manhood. The impact of rape on the male victims was
similar to that on female victims, disrupting their biopsychosocial
functioning; however, male rape appears to be underreported due to the
stigma associated with it.
