A Northern Ireland judge has said there is no distinction in law between male and female rape as he jailed a woman found guilty of raping a man in what is believed to be the first case of its kind in the UK.
It’s ridiculous but here’s what lawmakers had to say about female on male rape:
‘We did consider whether there was evidence that a woman could force a man to penetrate her against his will but, although we found a little anecdotal evidence, we did not discover sufficient to convince us that this was the equivalent of rape.’
This is after stating that rape is most serious and harmful of sexual offences.
