性暴力: 强奸: 男性受害人: 帮助受害人 1

如果受害人是男性，就帮助女性强奸受害人所列举的那些方法同样适用于他们。在受到人身性侵害之后也要尽可能快地设法：

这些要尽快处理的步骤一旦完成，强奸受害人应该寻求咨询服务，因为心理创伤可能非常严重，并持续很久。受害人不应该设法独自去自我消解。男性受害人也可能体验与女性受害人一样的痛苦：神经紧张、忧虑、痛苦经历浮现、失眠、反复做恶梦、情感孤僻和萎靡消沉。简而言之，他们遭受着“强奸创伤综合征(rape trauma syndrome)”的煎熬，第一时相类似于临床休克，接下来的时相是创伤后心理压力失调(post-traumatic stress disorder, PTSD)。

但是，因为受害人和强奸犯都是男性，男性受害人除了遭受这些心理失调以外，他们常常面临一些特殊的困境。

Sexual Violence: Rape: Male Victims: Helping the Victims 1

What has been said about helping female rape victims is also true if the victims are male. As soon as possible after the assault, they should also try to

• get to a safe place,
• seek medical help and secure the physical evidence,
• report the crime to the police and help them to arrest the rapist.

Once these immediate steps have been taken, rape victims should seek counseling, because the psychological trauma can be severe and long-lasting. A victim should not try to deal with it alone. Male victims may also experience the same problems as female victims: Nervousness, anxiety, flashbacks, sleeplessness, recurrent nightmares, emotional isolation, and depression. In short, they also may suffer from a “Rape Trauma Syndrome” which, in its first phase, resembles a medical shock and, in its second phase, a post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
However, in addition to this, male rape victims often face special difficulties, because both the victim and the rapist were males.
