CNN: "Houston-area rapist preys on men":

A rapist who preys on young men has struck five times in the Houston area since mid-September, and police said Monday there may be even more victims who are too ashamed to come forward.

He said some victims may be reluctant to come forward because of their ages and "a pride thing" that makes men more reluctant to acknowledge being the victim of a sex crime.

Using the same methodology that victims often do not report crimes against them, perhaps male-on-male rape is a larger problem in our society than one would wish to acknowledge.
