LONDON: Men in Britain aren't safe.
Data released today by the government shows that 72,000 males are raped and sexually assaulted in UK every year, whether reported or not.
More than one in 10 (12%) rapes in UK are against men.
Latest figures also show there were 2,164 rape and sexual assaults against males aged 13 or over recorded by the police in the year ending September 2013.
This has made Britain decide for the first time to commit £500,000 over the next financial year to provide services, like advice and counselling, to help male victims who previously have not been able to receive such support and encourage them to come forward after experiencing such a crime.
The fund announced will also support historic victims who were under 13 at the time of the attack.
The government said on Wednesday that male victims of rape and sexual violence will receive unprecedented access to vital help and support thanks to the first dedicated fund designed specifically to meet their needs, victims' minister Damian Green has announced.
Green said, "we must help all victims to cope, and as far as possible recover, from the impacts of crime - especially when it is as serious as rape or sexual abuse. Despite large number of sexual assaults against men, many choose not to come forward, either to report the crime or seek the support they need. I am determined to help break the silence on a subject still seen as taboo."
"Average sentences for male rape have increased but there is more to do. That is why we are toughening up sentencing and have introduced a mandatory life sentence for anyone convicted of a second very serious sexual or violent crime."
The fund will be open to bids from all charities and support organizations who feel they can offer help specifically for male victims. This will build on the services already available for rape or sexual abuse victims and ensure victims of most serious crimes received the highest level of support.
One organization which currently helps male sexual violence victims is Survivors Manchester, whose founder Duncan Craig has welcomed the new funding.
Mr Craig said, "In the past there has not been enough support in the UK for male victims of sexual violence, such as myself. But in the future I would like to see both the government and society begin talking more openly about boys and men as victims and see us trying to make a positive change to pulling down those barriers that stop boys and men speaking up. This funding will help to raise awareness of the issue and ensure that male victims are no longer ignored."
"I'd like to tell all boys and men that are sitting in silence I have been there. I have been silent and it's not a nice place to be. Yes it's difficult, embarrassing and painful to speak out but once you start healing, you will be able to break free from the legacy. Get support lads, don't suffer. You deserve to be able to heal."
Actor James Sutton plays rape victim John Paul McQueen in Hollyoaks. He worked with Survivors Manchester on the soap's current storyline and is supporting the ministry of justice to raise awareness of the issue of male rape and sexual violence.
Mr Sutton said, "The reason it was so important for Hollyoaks to feature a male rape storyline is because it is so rarely talked about. The over-riding message from survivors I met while researching the role was that victims of male sexual violence do not know where to go for help and support."
Victim's commissioner Baroness Newlove said "We must never underestimate the pain that victims go through as a result of such disturbing crimes. Victims of male rape have told me that they need more support - I'm glad the government has listened."
Around 91% of offenders in 2011 who were found guilty of rape of a male were given custodial sentences, with an average jail time of eight-and-a-half years.

in case some retard brings India here...I want to post an important news article....
Non-partner sexual violence in India among lowest in world, say researchers | Latest News & Updates at DNAIndia.com
part of the article.......
Countries with the highest rates of sexual violence are those in central sub-Saharan Africa (21 per cent; Democratic Republic of Congo), southern sub-Saharan Africa (17.4 per cent; Namibia, South Africa, Zimbabwe), and Australasia (16.4 per cent; New Zealand and Australia).Countries in North Africa/ Middle East (4.5 per cent; Turkey) and south Asia (3.3 per cent; India, Bangladesh) reported the lowest rates.
The researchers identified 7231 suitable studies and shortlisted 77 of them, compiling data on 412 estimates of violence from 56 countries. They meticulously went through studies published in the 1998–2011 period containing data on the global prevalence of women’s reported experiences of such sexual violence.
Within Europe, countries in eastern Europe (6.9 per cent; Lithuania, Ukraine, Azerbaijan) had a much lower prevalence of sexual assault than central (10.7 per cent; Czech Republic, Poland, Serbia and Montenegro, Kosovo) and western regions (11.5 per cent; Switzerland, Spain, Isle of Man, Sweden, UK, Denmark, Finland, Germany).
Sexual violence by non-partners is extremely high in a developed country like Japan.
The rates in DR Congo is highest, primarily because of conflict there.
Incidence is also much higher in Australasia and North American than in India.
it just shows that what is the fact.yet,western world comes to lecture us on the crime.
No doubt India Isn't the "rape capital of the world" as some retards like to make out but for sure the number of rapes is more than the reported number (as in EVERY country on earth) and India still has a LOT to do on women empowerment and education of men and prosecution of rapists.
Really? REALLY??Well I wouldn't mind being raped by a female though unless if she is a tranny.
