I don't get why people focus their argument on whether or not a guy is aroused during the act.

Granted, males are generally stronger than females, so a guy could feasibly avoid rape through sheer physical strength, but what about teenage boys or guys dealing with a notably stronger woman or that are just weaker? What about guys who are drugged or taken advantage of while passed out from booze or whatever? What about being threatened with a weapon?

Sure, the guy could remain completely unaroused, but some women prefer friction to actual penetration, so if a woman somehow incapacitated me and used my body for her pleasure without my consent, it wouldn't matter if I was hard or not. What would matter is that I was used against my will by another for pleasure. That, people, is rape. If I incapacitated a girl and came on her, even if no penetration was involved, it could still be considered rape. Unfortunately, us guys tend to be very focused on our dicks and its use for penetration, which is in itself an act of power, so I guess I can understand why some guys make these strange arguments on this thread.

As for reporting it, I agree that most guys would be ashamed to do it, since it all goes back to who has control and who doesn't. Also, we live in a culture that assumes all guys want sex all the time; that we're just waiting with our hand on our zipper to just pull out and go at it, so obviously any guy is going to have a hard time admitting he was raped, meaning that he didn't actually WANT to have sex. However, I'm sure that women raping men is more common than we think, although nowhere near what guys do to women.
