That said, I hope that Dworkin hasn't said that the gender of the rape victim matters, because it shouldn't matter.

I've heard non-obviously-bogus arguments that it should, e.g. men cannot get pregnant as a result of rape.

Unwanted pregnancy can be a result of rape, but rape seems like a separate Bad Thing that can happen to someone.
