Rape is Rape..

Yes, men are raped too.

I can't speak about crime investigations as far as male rapes go, but my experience of such investigations hasn't been positive.

I was accused of "making up" that I was sexually assaulted at school - because I didn't cry when giving my statement. What's the point of crying in that case??? He was the year below me... and I was more concerned about stopping him from further abusing others than I was about what he had done to me.

I was also told that another rape was my own fault for "dressing provocatively" - in a shirt and a pair of trousers.

Given my experiences, I don't think that men reporting rapes would do any better than I did. I mean, I was a minor in one example I gave - literally one of the most vulnerable people in society and they had me standing in the dark alone outside a locked door while they asked my parents if I would lie about being sexually assaulted at school.

If I lied... does that mean that the 29 other children who came after me lied about what they went through, too???

Men are less likely to come forward after being sexually assaulted, due to the stigma of it.

Fortunately in my country new approaches are being made to such cases, following an incident where a foreign national drugged and then sexually assaulted of 100 men over a period of years.

I was raped, well, I was drugged, and I don't know exactly what all happened, but I know there were 3 women there, and I was naked when I woke up all 3 of the girls were also 16.

There was a case of a policeman raping a man here. This is what the public learned about, imagine how many cases might go unreported.
