In cases like this it was clearly consensual MMM, when the father does it to the daughter it is rape.

My question is, how does woman on male rape even happen?

Consensual. I don't know about that. She gave her children alcohol, which is by far the biggest date rape drug that there is. She gave her teenaged sons alcohol and then tucked them in or had sexually explicit conversations. I don't know how consensual that should be considered. This isn't meant to sound rude, but if a father gave his daughter alcohol to the extent that this mother did (the article said the son was drunk) he would be tossed in jail (and it is a good thing) so damn quick it would make your head spin. This really shouldn't be considered consensual.

I was actually studying that for school and the easy answer is we will never know an answer. First, it is the social idea of a man getting raped is impossible and almost a laughable concept. I don't know if I was raped whether I would be able to walk into a police station and tell anyone. To be honest I would be afraid that I would get the looks that I am sure many people would give to a guy who says they have been raped (by a female)... what are you talking about guy type of look. That skews the figures a lot.

There are all sorts of reasons, such as the man doesn't know what to do or where to go. There are a huge amount of resources available to abused females, as well there should be, but at the same time there are none or seeminly there are none I should say available for men. That is the simple answer. I could find some statistics for you if you would like. I would just have to send a few e-mails out to a couple of professors.

EDIT: going off memory the rates are actually quite high, something like 1/5 men have been sexually assaulted.
