If a man was raped or experienced domestic abuse from a woman somehow, slapping, biting, hitting, while it is true that the woman would be looked at as crazy and unreasonable, men would be expected to shrug off something potentially traumatic. Constantly, society expects men to reach higher standards, in which they’re stronger, faster, more enduring than what may be healthy. Although society seems to be a more patriarchal existence, women are very much more victimized; men do not receive as much help because it is not acknowledged as serious. A common misconception that would provide further insight on this thought is that many people believe that men cannot be raped and that there is no actual evidence to prove that they were. Although the actual definition of rape is ambiguous or androgynous in the way that it does not pertain to one sex, people often associate it to women and disregard what male victims would go through. A statement that the world sees in a joking light is “Not all men.” A person will go through traumatic moments in life and often, the logical course of action after that seems to be to avoid anything that may cause a similar situation to take place. Consequently, many men are stereotyped after the media represents them in such a contemptful light that often remind others of what people are really capable of. Unfortunately, this also means that those who are innocent and have done no harm to anyone are often overlooked and automatically
