male rape. how do they get justice

Maryland

I have a paper to write. The dictionary defines rape as a female being penitrated. What happenes to a male being raped by a woman? How does he get justice? Why is the male rape victim shoned by the public and told to go on about life?

My hope is that you are at an appropriate age to write on this subject.

Though rape involves sexual acts, rape is not about sexual gratification; Rape is about power, fear, intimidation, control, violence, dominance, abuse and sometimes the act of murder. This would be a tough subject to find well documented cases on. You may want to start researching female serial killers. There are very few female serial killers that would fit this scenario compared to males, but, there may be a few female serial killers in history who raped their male victims or where rape was a part of their Modus Operandi - MO.

Cases of females raping males are so rare, the general population would have no past experience or information to draw from in order to respond with any sensitivity. It is a rare scenario due to the overpowering physical nature of the crime of rape; also, I would imagine it would rarely be reported by the male victims due to the emasculating nature of the crime and public exposure.

About getting justice: A male victim would go through the same criminal justice system the female victim goes through and all the same steps would apply. There should be a medical examination and a medical report of injuries, pictures of injuries, a full statement on what transpired, a criminal complaint filed, a meeting with the DA’s office, an investigation; a grand jury testimony; and if the grand jury indicted, they would have to testify in a trial.
