I was raped this week, ask me anything
« on: December 07, 2013, 04:02:48 AM »
Because nothing says "Gay Rape Crisis Hotline" quite like DU's general discussion forum.

Now they can discuss the general advisability of getting drunk in a leather bar while wearing assless chaps:

I was raped this week, ask me anything
Because DU has lots of stupid ideological discussions about this, and I've spent the week contemplating everything about what happenend, I thought maybe my personal input would be useful, free of agenda.

I'm a gay male, early 30s, pretty aware of things.

I can't promise instant reply, but I will be as honest as I can be. This might be, given the power of it, the last thing I post on DU, but I think it's worthy discussion.

2. I have no question but one--are you getting the help you need to deal with this trauma? nt

Of course he is. He came straight to that clearinghouse on mental hygiene with it - DU.

6. I'm ok

I'm a stoic sort. I've just been dealing with it in my noggin. Thank you, you and Janey for asking.

80. It's going to turn to rage

And every time you see him it will get worse .

You'll see him laughing and joking in a bar or a party
and you'll want to crash his skull in.

Call the police and report it.

114. I will take advantage

Of the resources posted here, for which I'm very grateful to everyone.

I don't want to press charges. Given every thing, it's just not a situation I personally want to land someone over prison about. But I am mustering my mental reserves to have it out with him personally at least.

The funny thing is, knowing him, when I confront him, I think he'd be mortified. Odd as that sounds.

14. Do you think the rapist became a rapist because of watching rape porn?

Or do you think that maybe they watched (if they did) rape porn because they were already predisposed to rape?

For some reason I don't think Bonobo is taking this too seriously.

Sorry the answer does not conform with your expectations.

23. I am conflicted

This was am acquaintance, I was black out drunk, he's generally a nice guy. Do I want to ruin his life and go to the police?

(And that is why I started this thread. These are my actual thoughts)

42. I do feel responsible to that extent

I did get drunk, and I did leave with him (barely with functioning consciousness), so I do feel it was a situation I entered.

53. Ok, something has come to my mind

that I want to say. Please understand, I do not often hear or read a report of such a horrible event first hand.

What I noticed, is that you are thinking about DU, instead of yourself. Can you tell us why you would think an issue being discussed on DU is so important when you have been physically attacked?

There is no way that is true.

Prism (3,733 posts)
104. I don't know, and no

He was an acquaintance and I was very drunk. I cannot say if I am the first or last very drink person he's done that to.

It was not drug related, however. Simply a bartender who took a fancy to me and kept pumping me with free drinks all night.

85. As a fellow host, LadyHawkAZ, has said, there is a group here if you need it.

As a member of the family, I offer you support for whenever you decide you need it. The betrayal of the situation simply adds to the already horrible situation. Though it wasn't this week, you may ask me anything about my sexual assault and how I have dealt with, and continue to deal with the event.

Becoming a survivor of sexual assault is never an easy thing, but, with support, it can happen.

Sincerely,

Aegis

Raped? My ass!
"Liberalism is an essentially feminine, submissive world view. Perhaps a better adjective than feminine is infantile. It is the world view of men who do not have the moral toughness, the spiritual strength to stand up and do single combat with life, who cannot adjust to the reality that the world is not a huge, pink-and-blue, padded nursery in which the lions lie down with the lambs and everyone lives happily ever after."

Of course it was not rape. Rape is a traumatic event for the victim. He/it wouldn't post on a discussion board if he/it was raped.

Yeah, sorry Prism, I have personal knowledge of a rape event which I wont' detail; the first inclination is not to divulge the event on the internet. There are rape victims who sometimes wait years to even share the traumatic event they have been through because no matter what and how misplaced they feel some sense of shame for what happened. Perhaps I'm  missing something in the gay world where I admit shame in general is at a minimum so perhaps natural reactions much like natural sex are at a minimum, but this just seems very weird. 

I'm not really sure your intention here; I certainly hope you are not doing this for attention which is the first thing that comes to mind.

Looking at the OP, This has none of the marks of rape. In fact, this looks like 90% of gay sex.

Haven't they been telling us all along that gays don't rape?

They not only told us, they assured us that was the case and anyone who didn't agree was a h8er.  We were assured that it was nothing but Conservative h8 to think that sexual assaults would skyrocket in the Military, since skyrocketed on the order of 40% or more.  We were barraged with countless hate crimes and bullying incidents, since proven to be false or perpetrated by the "victim".  Every single one, going back to St. Matthew of the Barbed Wire.

So, butt-hurt butt-pirate gets blasted then, ass-blasted.  :sosad:

I sympathize with the guy if what he said happened occurred.

If he did get black out drunk though the other person may not have known this.  Many moons ago I blacked out and my friends had no idea.  I was carrying on as normal and talking normal... for a drunk that is. I just don't remember about 3 hours of the night.  Hell in a black out state he could have been the one that brought it on.  I was tempted to go over with my mole and post something similar, but since I am posting it here I kinda ruined that.

What is it with people getting wasted and then thinking they were raped?  How do they know if they weren't a willing participant?

He's lucky he wasn't in a fatal accident.

Rather than trying to appease his own guilt for putting himself in that situation, as a true blue dummie he blames the other guy. 

Lesson dude....grow up, accept responsibility for your own stupidity, get over it, get an AIDs test and QUIT DRINKING.

boy, you bring up a really interesting perspective. if one were 'black out drunk' and driving a car, they would not be excused of charges because they were 'black out drunk'. How then can anyone claim to excuse their own sexual behavior(which is most likely unknown to them) in a black out drunk stage if something like a DUI would not be excused for the same reason? Obviously the law claims culpability for driving in that condition yet the same court when thinking on past incidents involving females do not find the same culpability for sexual behavior?

I know we have some legal types on here who could help me string together what seems to be a double standard in this regard versus driving behavior vs. sexual behavior. Especially in a situation where both parties don't have the judgement to gauge if one or the other is shit faced, how would one know? Now if his story is true, I think hes giving way too much leniency for his 'friend' given his profession and that he was giving him drinks. His 'friend' would have been well aware that he had a shitload of alcohol and one would think in absence of stupidity and for the sake of his own protection the friend would have nixed any romantic encounters until his buddy was back in his right mind and aware fully of what he was getting himself involved with. Now if he just met some dude at the bar who had no idea how much he had to drink, I would be more inclined to think how he is, but his friend knew how much he was giving him to drink so it paints the picture of hi having more nefarious purposes.

Like Maxiest said, just because he doesn't remember consenting doesn't mean he was unconscious and didn't voluntarily participate.  If he was actually passed out, sure, it was a gay ass-rape, but being blacked out drunk is far from the same thing as being passed out cold.

     Let's look at the options.

  • This didn't happen; it's performance art by a gay DUmmy to obtain clicks. Clicks and replies on DU are more valuable to them than bitcoins are.
  • This didn't happen; it's a dual-purpose post to inform like-minded DUmmies that they're (a) gay, and (b) on the easy side.
  • This did happen, but it was part of an elaborate "rape" bedroom roleplaying scenario, possibly to help avoid the horrific knowledge that a man was about engage in sexual congress with another man.
  • This did happen, except the rapist requires batteries and is sold at adult bookstores, and the victim had just finished watching a Six Feet Under marathon.
  • This did happen, except the rapist is a person of color and the butt-hurt victim is too politically correct to put a butt rapist in the Joint.
  • This didn't happen, and the DUmmy simply succumbed to the temptation after the 4,345,562th cable TV screening of The Shawshank Redemption.
