Shocking Stats on Male Sexual Assault in Military

The number of sexual assaults on women that occur in the military every year is high but those numbers are easily trumped by the rate of male-on-male assault in the military.

For instance, the Defense Department estimates that there are 19,000 sexual assaults every year, but only 17 percent of the assaults are ever reported. In 2010, 8,600 victims were female, and 10,700 were male.

If there were 1,219,510 men serving in the military in 2010, and only 17 percent of all male rape victims reported the crime, this means that 62,941 military men were sexually assaulted by other men in that year!

Regardless of just how high is the actual number, Reisman and Hampson would like to know why the public is not being told that " . . . (M)ost soldierly sexual assaults are now definitively homo, not heterosexual, male-on-male sexual exploitation?"

Navy Petty Officer 3rd Class Brian Lewis testified before the Senate Armed Services Subcommittee on Personnel on March 13, 2013 and told the story of how he "was raped by a senior petty officer … told by a commander not to report it, and later was diagnosed with a personality disorder and discharged.”

Lewis says, “As I demonstrated, men are a majority of the victims in the military. DoD’s [Department of Defense] infamous ‘Ask her when she’s sober’ marginalizes male survivors and sends a message that men cannot be raped and therefore are not real survivors.”

They are and, if not for the prevailing political correctness in the U.S. that does not permit anything negative to be reported about homosexuality, the public needs to be told.
