Do you just think the rape statistics I have quoted are imaginary or something?

Did I dispute them?

If you think the male experience with rape is remotely comparable, yes you did.

I don't think it's comparable, but I don't think it can honestly be compared or dismissed, ether (due to underreporting)

1 in 5 homosexual men are beaten or abused to the point where they attempt to commit suicide, and something like 1 or 2 in 20 succeed. It doesn't have to be because of rednecks. Just bullies, assholes, and people like your parents, your church, and you.

Citation needed, but still not equaling the 1 in 4 rape statistics for normal heterosexual girls.

Well, here's one.

I wonder what the statistics are for girls who were raped who attempt suicide?

That is not what I said. I asked WHY is God ignoring those things? As I mentioned, that is one of the big reasons I lost my faith; seeing all the horrible shit happen to people who did not deserve it, and see God sit idly by, even when he's being prayed to. That doesn't bother you in the least?

No, you referenced prayer, which you know I know works. Now you are telling me that since I was raped I should abandon my religion? Holy Jesus, why did you pretend to know anything about feminism if you were going to try and use a rape to browbeat a 17 year old girl into abandoning her religion?

No, I'm simply asking why were you raped if you pray and believe in god? Why did god just sit there and watch the whole thing happen? And why do you expect he will do so again, since you admitted that is still a major fear for you? I'm not tring to browbeat you. Those are simply questions I would have in your situation.
I was about your age when I abandoned mine btw. No one had to browbeat me. I simply asked why was god sitting around doing nothing about it. So, I understand if honestly asking this would scare the hell out of you.

And, heh, just remembered something that sort of ties into all these things. On the topic of homosexuality in the bible, and rape, the ONLY male survivor of that entire Sodom and Gomorrah incident just ended up getting raped afterwards.
