Ben Acheson explores the idea that rape and sexual violence against men needs to be more recognized. He includes that men make up 14% of rape victims in the U.S. and that even the discussion about rape committed against women isn't adequate. It's important to note that he is advocating for the inclusion of male rape victims and not trying to invalidate female victims or anything of the like -- he is trying to eliminate rape culture and he's trying to make the world a safer and easier place for survivors. He explains that male rape victims need be be discussed openly rather than in hushed tones and as though the topic is taboo.
