The CCJ has found that in Barbados the law permits a man to be charged for the rape of another man.

Oh my….those courts needs the holy bible and jesus to guide them and thats what they are missing…how did the bible got twisted….man and man cannot bring forth a child neither a woman to woman…..the lord will rock the Caribbean like he did haiti some years ago….oh lord have your way….hope it wont reach like Sodom and Gomorrah….oh barbelon….
I hope this law also signifies that men can also be raped or sexually molested by women.As a man myself I can note several instances of women touching my genetals without permission and then laughing about it afterwards.If men are charged and punished for raping women then women can and should be charged for raping men.
Of course…if a man bull another man without his permission that is “Taking backside without permission” so its rape. Matter of fact, if a man watches too much or touches another man backside without his permission that should also be criminalized not as mere veyaying or assault but as “Almost Rape”
. Hence, the whole definition of rape as it pertains to man upon man should change because we have wayyyyyyy too much of that in our society today.
DNO – mayne you should change your headline as it can also read that that the CCJ approves rape of men.
ADMIN: Thank you. We take your point. The headline has been changed.
This makes eminent sense and comes not before time. Equally, women can also be found guilty of rape on men and female on female as long as the act of sexual penetration, with any implement or bodily part, takes place without the victim’s consent.
