Yes, they obviously can, and it's not up for political debate.

Tell you're feminist friend she's the sexist if this is what she belives. Even if she somehow thinks that females are incapable of rape (which is obviously not true in the slightest - they are capable of it and it does happen), there's also many examples of men raping men.

This also kind of reminds me about Todd Akin's 'legitimate rape' comments.

Also these two below posts are correct:
Anyone can be raped, our society just does a terrible job of acknowledging male victims.
The fact that this is even a question is concerning.

If that feminist actually believes that they can't be raped, I'm truly stunned.

How do you know the feminist is male?

Huh? I just meant that I'm completely stunned the person mentioned in the OP believed that men can't be raped, or from what was implied.

Oh. I thought the 'they' in your post referred to the feminist in question, but in retrospect, I'm guessing 'they' probably refers to men. My mistake (and I agree with your post now that I understand who the 'they' is referring to).

Isn’t this only believed by TERFs?

Not even, though I could envision a MacKinnonite argument that only men can rape.

Even if that were true - which it very obviously is not - men could still be raped, because menc could rape other men.

AS a guy who got my ass grabbed in a public mens room, yes.

that isn't rape?

Lawer didn't say that. His point is that men can be sexually harrassed and/or assaulted as well.
