Concerns about Sexuality
The guilt and shame associated with rape is increased if the body of the person being raped has responded and become aroused. It is normal for the male body to become aroused when touched, and does not mean that the person wants to be raped. However, men who rape people often use this to ensure that their victim feels even more ashamed of what has happened, because they may then be less likely to tell anyone about it.
Rapists don’t necessarily target gay people, they target people they want to have sexual control and power over.
