While travelling out of Johannesburg, his car broke down in a remote area. A red Ford pulled up and two men offered to help. But instead of taking him to the nearest garage, they took him into bushes where they raped and robbed him. So great was Stewart's trauma that he became an alcoholic, storming and raging until his wife left him, taking their two small children with her.
Male rape is far more common than most people imagine.
Many consider it a joke, others consider it a sacrilege. South African law doesn't even recognise the existence of male rape. Western Cape police Captain Andre Traut explains that by law, only a woman can be raped. If a man is penetrated by another man, then it's sodomy. If he is sexually attacked by a woman, then it's sexual assault.
