I don't believe that split in serious violent victimization at *all*. Comparehttps://ucr.fbi.gov/crime-in-the-u.s/2015/crime-in-the-u.s.-2015/tables/expanded_homicide_data_table_1_murder_victims_by_race_ethnicity_and_sex_2015.xls …

Very close even without prisoners, at least according to 2011(?) NISVS survey. iirc it's about 1.1% per year for both men and women

ISTR some weird issues with NISVS but it's been years since I looked at it.

The issue is mostly just that "forced to penetrate" isn't counted as rape. Thus men are generally only "raped" by gay men and trans women...

...but if you use the more colloquially useful definition of "forced to have sex against their will", cis woman aggressors are counted
