Sexual frustration is a genuine source of psychological pain for a lot of men. Especially young men. Our pain is real, and it should be acknowledged.
Conversely, we should acknowledge that sexual frustration (and for the purposes of this discussion, male sexual frustration) can lead to people doing horrible things. I know multiple people personally who have been sexually assaulted explicitly because a man was sexually frustrated. Acknowledging this doesn’t mean sexually frustrated men are all evil misogynistic rapists, or that sexual frustration is the only reason people rape, or that women don’t rape men out of sexual frustration, or that sexual frustration isn’t a valid men’s issue.
