    I think this is terribly sad... Lil' Wayne makes it obvious that he was sexually assaulted by a female when he was 11. He looks uncomfortable and bothered by the questioning. There are too many people out there that dismiss rape of men by females. It is possible, it DOES happen, and it's every bit as wrong as when women are raped.

    Happened to Jon Davis, too. Everyone thinks it was his father who did it, but it was actually one of his female family friends. The song Daddy's about the fact that his parents didn't believe him when he told them. Poor guy. Never was a big Korn fan, but I can sure as hell understand why he's such an angry person.

    this is interesting to think about. a lot of people don't think about sexual assault of men by women. it's less common, certainly, but it's no less valid... although women get a lot of flak when raped/sexually assaulted- such as the "you asked for it" excuse- we have a lot of places we can turn to for support as well. i imagine men who are sexually assaulted by women don't have a lot of support places to turn to.

    My first reaction when I heard him say that on "Behind the Music" was "nice, bro". Now that I think about it...It's just as bad as a creepy old dude having sex with an eleven year old girl. Li'l Wayne has a bad life indeed, raped, shot himself in the chest accidentally and started doing drugs all at the age of eleven. I can't say I admire his music, but he went through a lot.
