There is an alternate and continuing narrative, however, that needs to be addressed before we move forward. It is the narrative that pities men and the “backlash” they have had to bear since #MeToo became a household term, and perpetuates two very false ideas: First, that women are the only survivors of sexual assault. And second, that men everywhere now have to “be careful” or that they will be accused themselves. The latter is particularly problematic, as it implies that women who do come forward with accusations are not being truthful.
