this is a very interesting document that might interest people like bells (though im sure she already knows most of it) and james but MH and ABS should really read it
its produced by a center called the Australian Institute for the Study of Sexual Assult (ACSSA) under the goverment institute for family studies (commonwealth gov)

about the previlance of male victoms. if i have calculated this correctly a third of victoms are men
that number was taken from The Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists medical fact sheet on sexual assult
it states that:
as the genders are roughly equal that means 1/3 of victoms are male
then there is also the victorian crimes act 1958 section 38
(3) A person (the offender) also commits rape if he or she compels a person-
(a) to sexually penetrate the offender or another person, irrespective of
whether the person being sexually penetrated consents to the act; or
(b) who has sexually penetrated the offender or another person, not to
cease sexually penetrating the offender or that other person,
irrespective of whether the person who has been sexually penetrated
consents to the act.
(4) For the purposes of subsection (3), a person compels another person (the
victim) to engage in a sexual act if the person compels the victim (by force
or otherwise) to engage in that act-
(a) without the victim's consent; and
(b) while-
(i) being aware that the victim is not consenting or might not be
consenting; or
(ii) not giving any thought to whether the victim is not consenting or
might not be consenting.
