FBI changes its definition of rape, includes males
The FBI announced recently that it has changed its long-standing definition of rape so that women are no longer the only people affected.
Men can now be included as rape victims in FBI crime reports, and the new definition of rape is “any kind of forced penetration.” This will also help organizations and the government allot the proper resources to the proper places and, as this Advocate article points out, raise awareness about rape in same-sex interactions.
This is pretty significant. What do you all think of this change?
