Gender differences in sexual victimisation

Since most sexual offenses are committed against women, male victims of sexual offenses have been neglected in the literature and in society. In order to gain insights into characteristics associated with male sexual victimization and motivate further research, we compared the case files of 221 female sex victims and 39 male sex victims in terms of characteristics of the sexual crime, the offender and the victim. Cases of male and female sexual victimization differed significantly in terms of the type of criminal offense, the gender of the police officer who interviewed the victim as well as the number of interviews conducted, and the delay in reporting the offense. Several characteristics of sexual offenses varied significantly with gender of the victim: whether one or more offenders were involved, whether a weapon was used, whether the victim resisted, whether the victim sustained injuries, and whether the offender and/or victim had consumed alcohol. Victims of different genders also differed significantly in terms of age, education level, marital status, relationship to the offender, and continuity of the offense. Several offender characteristics also differed significantly between cases involving male or female victims: gender, education level, employment status, marital status, and parenthood. These results suggest that sexual victimization can be experienced quite differently by male and female victims, in terms of characteristics of the offense, the offender, and police procedure. This highlights the need for more extensive investigation of gender differences in sexual victimization, since sexual integrity is a gender-neutral human right.
