Title: Phallicism as Racism against the Male Target: Dehumanization, Misandric Aggression, and the Splitting of Gender.

Abstract: Much of the current theory explaining the vulnerability of racialized outgroup males focus on death. In Adam Jones’s (2000) account of gendercide as well as Jim Sidanius’s (1999) theory of Social Dominance, outgroup or subordinate males become specifically targeted by dominant male groups for death. This targeting of subordinate males is interpreted as a specific sexual violence as genocides in particular, but many low level conflicts, kill civilian battle age men from 15-55 first. But what function then does the rape of subordinate outgroup men serve in these conflicts? This paper will argue that the rape of racialized males in slavery, Jim Crow, the Armenian Genocide, Gaza, and the Holocaust indicate that sexual violence has always been an integral part of patriarchal societies’ domination of lesser men. Rather than understanding the rape these men as an exception, this paper will argue that the rape of racialized males, and their simultaneous construction as the rapist is (and has been) the most visible and dominant process of racial-outgroup male subjugation throughout the 20th century.
