Can a man be raped by a woman?

[Aura]

This is a seriouse question. I am not being rude, so please don't think so this is just a something posted by a weirdo, it is not. I just wanted a scientific answer to part of my college project to do with anatomy of the body. I'm sorry if I have upset anyone with this question. Thank you.

Im not trying to be deliberately awkward here CK1 causer I did giggle when I read that but its that very reason we dont here about it. What man is gonna admit he was raped casue that it what the general attitude is.

You must all be youngsters! There was a very high profile case back in the 70's of a woman who kidnapped a Morman man and repeatedly raped him. http://www.trashfiction.co.uk/mckinney.html

In the UK women can and are convicted of rape.

Home Office figures show between 1995 and 1999, 18 women were convicted of rape or aiding and abetting it, but most of those were against children.

What happens in disclosure, as I havn't seen this film?

Any and all women convicted of rape under UK law will have been accessories to a male perpetrator and faced trial on that charge because of "joint enterprise".

Although found guilty of the charge of rape because of secondary criminal liability (aiding, abetting or incitement) these women have not committed the act of rape itself.

There was an episode on 'Doctors'(BBC1) yesterday where the lad in question was drunk. The girl handcuffed him and had her 'wicked way' with him.

Should have added that he was advised to report it to the police
