You're right; I made the unconscious assumption that someone (no matter their gender) advocating that all rapes be reported to the legal system is not someone who has reported a rape to the legal system. Based on my experience with rape survivors, I don't know a single one who would take that stance, but that doesn't mean there aren't some who would. Mea culpa.
