I know this was UK specific but here in the USA males have a 1 in 5 chance of being sexual assaulted -- that's hardly small. Given that boys and men are supposed to talk about it far less than women and girls, I wonder what the true rate is. Since we know that predators often learn from being victims, I wonder how much we might cut rates of violence against women if we stopped the entire "boys will be boys" nonsense when boys are violent against each other?
