True, however, the vast majority of rapes of women are by men, and the vast majority of rapes of men are by men.

It's not like the issue of men being raped is predominantly due to women, whereas the issue of women being raped is predominantly due to men.

I also wonder if all the 'alpha male' bullshit might actually be a detrimental influence on prison rape, since it so clearly reinforces and mimics the sort of hierarchy that exists among men in prisons.

Yes, men perform the vast majority of the rapes. Also most sexual abuse. Nobody doubts that.
But not most relationship abuse. http://moxymag.com/2011/03/man-beater/
