I can't remember the last time a read about a male victim rape-though I hear about it all the time through the rape crisis center.

But if a man has been murdered, he's not there to 'not report it'. Why wouldn't his injuries be reported as a woman's are?

But someone else is generally around to report it. Either a person goes missing and family reports it causing the police to begin a search. Or a body is found. With rape, since it is generally not committed with an audience present, only the victim (survivor) and the perpetrator are aware of the crime. The perpetrator certainly isn't going to report it so unless the survivor reports it or tells someone else (unlikely) who reports it, it remains a secret between the involved parties. It doesn't hit the news if it stays private.

so how do they know when a woman was raped? there is evidence on the body. and clues such as nudity, placing of the body...
the same autopsy techniques that show a woman has been assaulted would show a man was assaulted...so there is no reason why they wouldn't know.

I'm not talking about instances where the victim was murdered. I am talking about sexual assaults of men who survive the attack. Very very few rapes result in murder. Criminals pretty much stick to their crime of choice so rapists pretty much just commit rape.
