Why is it that everytime an eastender is released from prison, forumers take great glee in discussing the likelihood of them being raped in prison.

Dean, Ben, now Max sure there have been others.

Just wondered if anyone could shed any light on why they think this happens?

I am pretty sure that not every male prisoner is raped as part of their sentence

This forum has a weird obsession with rape, especially male rape.

"Jay should be raped" was a meme that always did the rounds.

With both Ben and Dean it was implied.

In Dean's last episode in 2008, just after he had been released from prison, Chelsea (after seeing the cigarette burns on his arm) asked 'what did they do to you in there?' and Dean replied 'everything'.

With Ben, there was scene with him and Phil in the launderette where he was talking about what happened and Phil said he didn't want to know. I'm sure there was also a scene with Jane that implied something as well.

What have people been saying about Max?

It is a bit strange tbh. Probably because gay porn, as with most porn, normalises rape in a sense. It's seen as kinky/a fetish to some.

Especially the male shower prison scenes.

It's sad that porn 'normalises' rape

It is sad, because it makes porn more of a taboo than it ought to be. It sounds so seedy, especially gay porn with the constant references to "rough", "daddy/son" stuff etc. There's no need for it.

Ha - just read this on another thread - and yeah - I rolled my eyes.

Male rape has become something of an obsession for some DS posters - dunno why, its kind of creepy.

It is creepy.

As soon as prison mention, rape is suggested.

I think that's because people wanted a story line for Jay .
If Eastenders ever did a male rape plot I think Ben would be the more likely victim . He's already putting himself out there on hook up apps and people like Stephen Port for example exist . For Jay writers would have to come up with an entirely new situation, he's more likely to get in trouble with his drug connections .

More likely references to being bullied than rape.
People having to be careful in prison of getting raped is mostly a myth, it hardly ever happens in a young offenders prison and for adult prison's I'd guess the stats are not much difference than on the outside, because believe it not, prison is not exactly short of consenting participants that go gay for the stay.

Similar obsession to that of heterosexual male characters suddenly having a sex with another heterosexual male along the lines of Mick and Jack because they jokingly kissed in one scene so for some on the forum it has to result in them having sex together.
