Since rape is an act of violence I have never understood how it is possible for a man to be "raped" by a woman. Unless his "member" plays no role in the "rape".

This story is hokum. Or these men were not really raped.

It’s rape when you don’t wish to have sex, or don’t know better (such as statutory rape). Further, if it is done against your will it is either passively violent or aggressively violent. Either way, men and women can be, and are, raped.

Bible example is Joseph’s near rape by Potiphar’s wife. Modern examples include teacher-student rape, incest, sexual predators, or any number of examples of older men abused sexually under the influence of a drug or alcohol (I’ll leave that to your imagination but it isn’t nice loving fun).

And if the woman is impregnated (and demands monetary compensation) or the guy contracts VD, it stops being a wonderful fantasy skip through Penthouse forum.

If that is the case then getting a woman or girl drunk/drugged to the point of incapacity isn’t rape because she can’t “say no.” You do not want to make the legal definition of rape dependent on [physical] arousal, trust me there.

It is entirely possible to rape a man, even if he isn’t aroused. You see the penis becomes erect when these muscles in the crotch restrict the flow of blood; it is possible to restrict that blood flow artificially. {Also, despite ‘common wisdom,’ erections may be triggered non-sexually; interestingly an erection is a [not uncommon] possible symptom of severe spinal injury.}
