For Hlonipha Mokoena, a researcher at the Wits Institute of Social and Economic Research, the reaction to the Bishops story is a thread that has been running through society for a long time.
Kathleen Dey, director of Rape Crisis, says of the Bishops case: “We don’t know the dynamics of these particular relationships. What we say about them is based on many assumptions that might not be true. Even the fact that he reported it doesn’t tell us about the truth of the situation for this particular young man.”
It’s a stereotype about men that they’re not vulnerable and don’t experience emotional pain when it comes to sexual relationships. A sexual situation can be emotionally and psychologically violent, even if not physically“It’s a stereotype about men that they’re not vulnerable and don’t experience emotional pain when it comes to sexual relationships. A sexual situation can be emotionally and psychologically violent, even if not physically,” she said.
However, “adolescence is a developmental stage with sexuality playing a crucial role, and what happens in someone’s sex life during this stage can be vitally important to how they develop”.“Laughing at the situation that this young man finds himself in perpetuates the myth on a spectrum that says men can’t be raped. It is ‘a joke’ — it can’t happen, it is funny, and therefore it is not real or serious, and we can make light of it and ignore it,” said Dey.
