Sexual Assault of Men Played for Comedy
It's even used in children's cartoons. This video is disturbing, and I'm stunned at the prevalence of this theme in the entertainment media --- that sexual assault or threatening sexual assault of men is somehow supposed to be funny.
It's also disparaging to women and homosexuals and racist undertones are in the mix. The video is newly released and runs just under 30 minutes. I hope you all will find the time to watch this.
"It’s hard to overstate just how common jokes about men being sexually assaulted are in entertainment media. Most popular comedic actors engage in this type of humor. Jokes are typically designed to demean, humiliate, control, or emasculate a male character for being the victim, or potential victim, of sexual violence."

This morning on NPR was an interview with a former S. Baptist woman who had been sexually assaulted and carried lots of scars. She talked about how the abuse affected her and even at an older age she got really emotional. She also mentioned it would be a cold day in hell before she entered another church BUT that she still believed there is a god and Jesus.
It's not just priests but clergy (and too often men) in general.

As a man who's very recently coming to terms with the idea that I was, in fact, raped by a woman, I find this highly offensive. It's even more offensive because a big part of the reason I didn't come to terms with it before is because I felt guilty about calling it rape due to the belief that it wasn't really rape since I was a guy.

There was a recent case of an Australian woman who was in charge of a children's center who was molesting children. When it was uncovered the woman fled the country. It was another report from FFRF's Black Collar Crime.
