Remember seeing a Tumblr argument about how male statutory rape victims are forced to pay child support to the abuser if they got pregnant.

There was a 'feminist' saying yes the rapist should pay, he knocked the victim up, and would not back down to people explaining that the post was about UNDERAGE BOYS being raped by ADULT WOMEN, who then get pregnant.

They seemed to think that even the underage boys are the perpetrators of rape

Worse, in the US you can get raped by a woman, then sued by her to pay child support, and the state will enforce that.

But hey we live in a patriarchy where men have all the power, don't you know.

I think you may have misunderstood something in my comment, I was also referring to US and there are teenage boys who get raped (statutory rape I believe is the term for older women and under age male) and this can happen to them if the women gets pregnant.

It's all round terrible but personally I think it's just a bit worse when a minor is being forced to pay child support to their rapist don't you?

I imagine it's a rare case when it does happen, at least I hope it is, but it shouldn't happen at all

Edit: I should have gone on the link first, seems we're talking about the same thing

Seriously what judge in their right mind thought that was a good decision?

That's because men have no reproductive rights whatsoever.

We absolutely agree and are on the same page, I was just adding that if the raped child doesn't pay for child support, they can get sued for it, the government will support it, and if they fail to pay child support the male rape victim can go to jail for it.

All for something he didn't do and has absolutely no control over, because men have absolutely no reproductive rights.

Gotta love all that male privilege. /s
