One day you'll understand, but right now you are calling all the male members of your family rapists. I have a feeling you don't have children but if you did, well...
No I'm not. I will say all men are capable of rape, especially those who don't listen to or respect women. Amongst any other issues men will shrug off because it hurts their feelings. If you have an issue with that, it's a personal problem.
Where I'm from only men are capable of rape in legalese. So to me your first statement is obviously correct and yet creates the lie.
Also you just said your son(future?) is a rapist.
It creates a vacuum where men (even male children) are not seen as victims, and provokes hostility.
I absolutely have a problem with the way women can be treated within society yet I can see that it is within a bigger problem of general dissatisfaction. If you help create strong and confident men, you get less creeps.
The sooner we realise that both sexes together can work to solve this horrid issue, the better. That starts with much less generalised finger pointing.
Wish you all the best.
