In the Ongwen case, according to the otp women were abducted to be wives and men to be soldiers, women were forced to work and men forced to fight. The otp brought enslavement charges for some of these crimes. Absent from the charges was the forced fighting of men. This paper discusses the crime of enslavement in the Ongwen case. By combining a doctrinal analysis and a feminist approach, I seek to show how gender representations emerge in the application of the law in detriment of men’s victimhood. I argue that the application of the law responds to gender representations in war. Men are not perceived to be victims once they become ‘soldiers’. Likewise, for women, the effect is their continuous perception as non-fighters and victims of war. This leads to reinforcing those representations, to lack of acknowledgment of victimhood for men and to reducing the experiences of women.

在 Ongwen 案件中，根据 otp 的说法，妇女被绑架为妻子，男子被绑架为士兵，妇女被迫工作，男子被迫打仗。检察官办公室对其中一些罪行提出了奴役指控。指控中没有提及男子的强迫战斗。本文就翁文案中的奴役罪进行探讨。通过结合理论分析和女权主义方法，我试图展示性别表征如何在法律的适用中出现，从而损害男性的受害者地位。我认为法律的适用是针对战争中的性别代表性的。男性一旦成为“士兵”，就不会被视为受害者。同样，对于女性来说，其影响是她们持续被视为非战斗人员和战争受害者。这导致强化这些代表性，导致缺乏对男性受害者的承认，并减少女性的经历。
