It's an utter disgrace - I would add in there that there are a fair few men who have reported (doon sooth that is) and have been treated with utter contempt.
My view is - being male or female, gay or straight, black, white or brown and so on makes no difference to the trauma and abuse involved in the act. Anyone who reports sexual assault of any nature has the absolute human right to be heard, respected and supported. Enough of these stupid distinctions. Abuse of power is abuse of power and is fundamentally wrong. Why can't society get to grips with this?
