Majority of sexual assaults and rapes committed in military in 2011 were against men

Rape is not just a nightmare for military women.

Of the estimated 19,000 reported sexual assaults and rapes in the armed forces last year, the majority were actually committed against men.

Men are assaulted at a lower rate — 1% of servicemen reported being attacked by a comrade last year versus 4.4% of women — but that still translates to more than 10,000 cases compared with 9,000 attacks on female recruits and officers.

the new policy of allowing openly serving homosexuals and cross dressers needs to be investigated and obviously with these stats and other problem is have heard then it needs to be done away with.

Homosexual men are attracted to other men and yet we let these predators now share showers, rooms, etc.

What a sick and twisted society some have made us.

Straight men don't rape straight men.

That's the truth.

Is there any possible connection between sexual assaults on straight men and the exploding suicide rate in the military?

Could be.

Greetings, manc - just overwhelmed in every way...

Recuperating from illness, canning season (did 35 jars of blackberry jam/etc in the last few days), and the bad, bad news just got to me.

But I’m starting to feel riled up so maybe I’ll start pinging again. And I won’t be nice, either!

This article FREAKING ENRAGES ME!!! I can’t express how @()*Q#* ANGRY I AM!

well Im glad you are getting beter and sorry to hear about your illness.
Shame I;m on the other coast as I;d buy some cans of jam off as the kids love it.

Oh I can guess how pissed off you are with this news.

I remember you and I talking about this about a year ago and we said this would happen and now it has and looking at the comments on tat site then it still appears that some are in denial

My Dad talked about a guy in his basic training unit. This was during the Korean War. He said the guy kept telling everyone he was a prizefighter. He was trying to scare the young guys into performing homosexual acts with him. Dad said the guy threatened one of his buddies, so Dad waited for the homosexual to come back to the barracks. Turns out the homosexual had a glass jaw. Dad knocked him out for something like 15 minutes. Dad had to go see the Company Commander. Dad told him what happened. The Captain listened and told Dad to go back to his barracks. The Captain said, “One last thing.....what did you hit that guy with?” The Old Man could lay em out like a logger dropping trees.

Here’s the part of the article that jumped out at me.

“but gay men in the military have also suffered horrific attacks”

This is 100% BS. Now days you bust one of these fags in the mouth for making a pass at you and you are the one given the Article 15 or worse.

The truth of the matter is, like others have said, if a man rapes another man, he is HOMOSEXUAL. Straight men do not sodomoize other men, whether they are straight or homo.
This is a very misleading article from a very liberal newspaper. The same newspaper that loves to spout off about priests sexually molesting a teenager, but never telling you that the priest is a homosexual who took advantage of the kid. 96% of sexual allegations against priests or any other clergy involved HOMOSEXUAL MEN, but the HOMOSEXUAL-LOVING liberal media never mentions this when reporting the crime. The reason? They love homos and see nothing at all wrong with their vile, despicable, unnatural sex acts.

After reading the article more carefully, I am sure the increase in suicides is at least partially due to faggots.

Illness was nothing scary, just a pain in the okole...

I am beyond disgusted and angry, just as every sane person would be. And all sane people knew exactly what would happen, too.

No surprise. All we had to do was look at the queers that invaded the Church, the Scouts, and every other organization filled with young men and/or boys. At some point people must realize what still hides in the “gay” man’s closet.

3) this also applies to the Priest abuse scandal. almost ALL (99%) is GAY men, molesting boys. ...how many cases are there, of a Priest molesting a girl? (and it’s not just opportunity. girls have been altar servers, since 1985)...

Which is why the fags use the propaganda line "Most pedophiles are heterosexual". That's because homos never rape girls.

The correct term for the boy-raping sodomites is "Pederast"

I served over 20 years in the US military, retiring as a senior non-commissioned officer, working in Security Police for a major part of my career. Never did I run across a case of a straight man raping another straight man.

Happened over and over, and over again, in my unit. Every single day.

And I told him to stop.

I have been hit on throughout my life by gay guys.... if one actually attempted rape... it would be the worst day of his life....

I've only encountered one who wouldn't take "No" for an answer. Drunken union business agent. He suffered a badly bruised (maybe broken) hand when I hit myself it the crotch with a spud wrench. He said he'd make sure I never got called back to work again.

I think the article misses a very important point, at least the excerpt does. Off the top of my head, I seem to recall that the total military population is something in the neighborhood of 750-800K persons. 19K/750K = 2.5% occurance, assuming that each of the 19K uniquely involves a different victim and a different perp.

I wonder what the rate is in the general population....

tht is what I was wondering too.

If the military is up to 800,000 then we’re looking at 19,000 sexual assaults , rapes etc.

That is quite a lot compared to some cities and obviously the military has a massive problem with this and other issues today.

To place homosexuals who like the same sex in the same area, the same room, be in charge of, to share a shower, sleeping bag during survial training is asking for problems and no sane person woudl force men to share showers etc with a woman so why are we alloing these people?

Because the military has PC crap in it now and I doubt Romney or anyne else we have in power right now will overturn allowing openly serving homosexuals, hell they can use this and other problems which have been created by overturning don;t ask.

want to see how ignorant and stupid some people are or in denial.

here is a post by someone on that site

=====================I’m sorry, but these “straight” men committing these acts are not straight. Straight men do not want sexual favors from other men, they are homophobic and hateful people. These are the people who hate gays. Hard to believe that people are so short sighted and violent in this day and age. I’m so tired of people blaming everyone for their problems and hating every one different from them. Be an adult and deal with the issue at hand==================================

so they are not straight but men who are hating homosexuals and hateful.

cheese fell off the cracker with this one

This will do wonders for recruitment /s, todays military is NOT your dads military. I certainly expected homosexuals to join up in large numbers, perfect hunting ground. I expect the officer core will be the first target of hungry homosexual males. Someone earlier mention the Royal Navy, exactly correct.

The problem is that gay advocacy and mainstream media will not admit the homosexual aspect as it would ruin the repeal of DADT victory. This piece last year from Newsweek’s the Daily Beast:———————

“The Military’s Secret Shame”

“In the military the silence is nearly complete. By the Pentagon’s own estimate, figures for assaults on women likely represent less than 20 percent of actual incidents. ..just one in 15 men in the Air Force would report being sexually assaulted, compared with one in five women...

While many might assume the perpetrators of such assaults are closeted gay soldiers, military experts and outside researchers say assailants usually are heterosexual.”
