‘Gay’ rape in military underreported by Pentagon
The Washington Times ^ | November 3, 2015 | Rowan Scarborough

Far more military men are being raped by other men than is reported by the Pentagon because of the stigma attached to such sexual assaults, says a new study by the American Psychological Association.

“Rates of military sexual trauma among men who served in the military may be as much as 15 times higher than has been previously reported, largely because of barriers associated with stigma, beliefs in myths about male rape, and feelings of helplessness,” the APA said in releasing its findings Tuesday.

It isn’t being reported because of “stigma.”

It isn’t being reported because it makes obama look like the jackass he is!

Those who pushed the lifting of that homo ban in the military should have a special place waiting for them in hell.

There are even worse reasons than the one you've come up with...

I would think that the military would be an environment in which perpetrators would be taken out and dealt with harshly, well out of the lime light.

I don’t doubt that. But I try to guard what little naivety I have left.

Gee whiz, didn’t see this coming. Gays will be happily gay and want to bugger every man they think attractive. Think San Fransisco bath houses. So glad I left the Navy before they started eyeing my ass. I would have at least a Captain’s Mast after punching one out.
ESAD, you f*cking pervs.

Even "offending" the fag is a court-martial offense in today's military.

This sure as hell did not happen in the Marines in the mid-sixties.

Gee, what has changed since then?

This problem has existed for hundreds of years. The Articles of War for the Royal Navy stipulated sodomy as a capital offense. Rape of crewmen, especially the young servants and boys who were learning to be mariners were particular victims. The rapists were actually most often the commissioned officers and warrant officers. These men had power and they had some degree of privacy in their quarters and work places. The laws against homosexuality were put in place to protect the victims, not necessarily to punish the homosexuals themselves. While the punishment was death, most often courts martial directed flogging, or where an officer was involved, he was dismissed the service with no hope of reinstatement.

The current regulations only encourage the same sort of behavior that the Navy attempted to curtail. Rapes are not reported because the rapists are in positions of authority and likely to escape punishment if reported. The victim, on the other hand, will experience retribution. Stupid liberals think that their fantasy worlds are exempt from the ugliness of the real world.

Well, yes, but promotion of this vile lifestyle is unconstitutional in our “Justice” (virtue) System

— the whole homosexual “movement” to make sodomizing others into a “good”-—will lead to more vice, since the irrational, puerile, mentally-ill desire, is a pure evil— irrational, vile, disease-causing, use of the human body that defies Reason, Biology, Reality and Flourishing.

Promoting Vice in “Just” law is an oxymoron and as Montesquieu and our Founders and Justice John Marshall knew that ALL “JUST” Laws had to promote “public virtue”.

When you “promote” anything through force of law-—you get MORE of it, that is why it is essential to promote Virtue, as what was stated at Nuremberg Trials.

“When Law ceases to be Just, it ceases to be Law”. We have a duty to disobey unjust laws ALWAYS. They are “null and void” (Justice John Marshall—father of American Jurisprudence).

Yes, to some degree. But this problem has NEVER before been considered a "constitutional right."

"Who they are" now trumps everything.

This is really old news and a retread article. FR has had threads on this for years. It’s true and has been as long as there has been any army anywhere.
