Nah, it'd be just as bad. Many people don't treat it as such, but women raping men is no better than men raping women. It just gets taken less seriously because of the idea that women are so much weaker than men that men should be able to overpower them (which is kind of silly given that the people advancing such sentiments tend to also be in favour of everyone having guns to put them on equal footing with more powerful assailants), as well as the idea that men are always supposed to want sex and the subsequent assumption that there's no way a woman wanted sex when a man didn't. Obviously, neither assumption is right, but those are the attitudes that need fixing.

I think it's also because women raping men are such a small fraction of the statistics. A man is much more likely to be raped by another man than a woman, so there's much less attention being drawn to the subject. Not that this is a justification for failing to take these allegations seriously though, such as Jimmy Bennett accusing Asia Argento of sexual assault. We still have a long ways to go as a society on how we treat victims of both sexes.
