Here are some ideas, many of them mentioned by comedienne Sarah Silverman, and all worthy of a little extra airtime.

Misandric and not funny at all

This is a fail. It's misandrist and unfunny.

Some of this is very misandristic

Wow, I was excited to think that this article would be progressive and talk about the men that are sexual assault victims.

THANK YOU ! You said it well. People who don't understand your way to show things don't understand the rape issue.

This article would have been more useful if there were tips on how to avoid being raped such as carrying pepper spray, poking the perpetrator in the eyes, etc.

I think this article should be removed. It's incredibly sexist towards males. Not all men are rapists. It's not even funny to joke about. This is very disappointing

Of course not all men are rapist, but I enjoyed this article

How strange as if all men are rapists! No some men are decent and not every man who walks into a lift wants to rape a woman or at all! Yes rape exist no doubt you should have thought about how to state your point properly. Just saying.

This is probably not the right app to be posting this article.
