Yeah, go read the comments under the ample news stories of e.g. female teachers statutory raping their students. It's all full of "He should be happy", "What a lucky kid" and so on.

It's not seen as "being sexualized" but as "being lucky". So of course, if you frame it like that, nothing bad ever happens to men.

Look up the 1in6 statistic on male victims. 🫡 Its a LOT more common than people pretend it is.

I know, it absolutely is. But when male victims try to do something about that, they are told to "just be grateful".
