Men are overwhelming at risk of being sexually assaulted before the age of 12.

I hear a lot of 'What about men?' rumblings whenever I talk about sexual violence against women but the real question is 'What about the boys?' https://twitter.com/AP/status/1328418680590524418
Also important to know that boys and men are most likely to be sexually assaulted by other men.

And the next time someone says 'WHAT ABOUT FALSE ACCUSATIONS?!', remember that a man is more likely to be sexually assaulted than to be falsely accused of rape.
Today and every day, I stand in solidarity with those who've been sexually assaulted and I condemn, with my whole damn soul, the institutions that enable it to happen.

Whether it's Boy Scouts, universities, USA Gymnastics, etc. we need to hold institutions accountable.
Lastly, you could spend your entire career focused on male violence against women and boys and men will still benefit.

Most perpetrators of sexual violence are men.
They are the overwhelming cause of sexual trauma.
A world that is safe for women is safe for all. ✌️
PS Men (not boys, MEN) are most likely to be sexually assaulted while incarcerated or while serving in the military.

Remember that the next time someone cares to claim about male survivors but laughs at 'prison rape' jokes & scoffs at attempts to eradicate rape from the military
