FBI Crime Stats Omit Male Rape Victims

From the sponsors of the website Stop Prisoner Rape:

"The FBI just released its report on crime statistics, but it left out something important: All male victims are excluded from its numbers on rape. Why? Because the FBI’s classifications for crimes were developed in 1929 and have never been updated to reflect the reality that many men are victims of rape, especially in prison."

"Stop Prisoner Rape, a Los Angeles-based nonprofit human rights group, is calling on the FBI to reform this blatantly sexist approach to dealing with male rape victims."
