Nope, sorry. Other way around from talking with OSI buddies few years ago. Their busiest days of the weeks are Saturday and Sunday dealing with what usually is referred to as "regret sex". The problem I have with the military is, that they will not investigate any male complaints against women because they only go under the assumption that there is no rape without penetration. That and if a woman has one beer, takes a man home who had 6-10 beers (whatever will trash him) she can claim rape because her judgement was "impaired".
I think it's completely wrong not to take seriously reports that men were raped or assaulted by women. You won't believe how many girls say "Guys can't get raped. If they don't get hard, what's the point?" Really? I wasn't aware rape was about pleasure - rape is about power that the abuser gets. Anyone see Wedding Crashers? Yeah it's a movie but I mean Vince Vaughn's character did get raped like he said when he had his "midnight raping."

When I was an EO rep if a guy came to me with a serious complaint about rape or assault, I would've done my job. Even if I wasn't and a soldier came to me, male or female, and said they were assaulted I would try to help. I know of a female who harassed male junior enlisted soldiers and one time I overheard her talking inappropriately to a PFC. I scoffed at her and she said "Oh no mom is getting mad at me..." I said "No that's extremely inappropriate for you to say to anyone, let alone a married junior enlisted soldier." She walked away. Then she basically sexually assaulted a friend of mine in Iraq. He went to go show her where something was in the TOC break room or whatever and as they were walking around the corner she said "What else are you going to show me?" I was like "Inappropriate." Then he tells me later that as he was faced away from her, she grabbed his ass. He told her not to ever do it again but I asked if he wanted me to talk to her. He said "No it's okay. I handled it and it will make things worse." Gee sounds familiar.

There are people who likely have "regret sex" but that's why people don't take someone seriously if they really were abused. That's why investigations are done if it's unrestricted.
