I don't know. The boys in the article are in a different situation than the "traditional" configuration as they are already in custody, rather than abducted or waylaid. What I got from the article was that this kind of abuse seems to distort ideas of what appropriate and/or healthy sexual relations are for these boys and that this may be a foundation for future behavioral issues.

It definitely challenges the image of rape that comes to mind upon encountering the word "rape" but it is clearly abuse.
