本文比较了男性和女性的强奸报案行为。来自全国犯罪和受害者调查数据的参与者（90%为女性，10%为男性）与其他暴力犯罪的受害者（25%为非白人，高于平均失业率，年轻，未婚）非常相似。数据表明，强奸的情景特征以及影响强奸报告决定的因素因性别而异。男子在强奸危及其男性身份认同时不报案，而妇女在强奸不符合典型的陈规定型强奸情况时不报案。妇女比男子更经常报告受害情况。有人断言，需要进一步的比较研究强奸报告行为，利用定性方法，以充分了解强奸受害的两性。
This paper compares male and female rape reporting behavior. Participants from National Crime and Victimization Survey data (90% female, 10% male) are much like victims of other violent crimes (25% non-white, higher than average unemployment, young, and unmarried). The data indicate that the situational characteristics of rape, and factors that influence a rape reporting decision, differ by sex. Whereas men fail to report rape when it jeopardizes their masculine self-identity, women;fail to report rape when the rape does not fit the classic stereotypical rape situation. Women reported victimization more frequently than did men. It is asserted that further comparative research on rape reporting behavior utilizing qualitative methods is needed in order to fully understand rape victimization for both sexes.
