I would wager, as far as the rape part, because a lot of people assume that men just want sex all the time, no matter the circumstance.
As far as the abuse, the stereotypical picture people have of heterosexual couples is one where the man is taller and larger than the woman. The thought of the smaller person whaling on the larger incites titters. Although of course, this isn't always true - and even if it IS true, a teeny woman can still abuse a man verbally.
IMO all the "aren't men so stupid, we need to take care of them" bashing that has become so prevalent in popular culture is really paving the way for female-on-male abuse - mental AND physical.
