You’d have a different attitude if you had a son who was wrongfully accused.

Yes.

And you'd have a very different attitude if you had a family member brutally raped.

[IronJack]

So those are our only options? Unquestioning belief in the mere accusation of rape by a woman or turning a blind eye to the actual assault of women?

How about a system in which we discard #metoo hysteria and return to the proven legal tenet of “innocent until PROVEN guilty”? And how about meting out criminal punishment to women who maliciously destroy mens’ lives by leveling heinous charges they know are false?

How about protecting the innocent of BOTH sexes, while punishing the guilty of both?

I am outraged that either happens. If I had a female relative who was raped and had absolute certainty of his guilt, I’d be the one going on trial.

I’ve had both and they are both wrong.

I had a family member who was raped and one who was falsely accused of rape.

BOTH of these things are wrong. I do not assume any woman is lying or any man as automatically guilty without evidence.

Well, then.

Throw the guys to the wolves then...or you hate rape victims.
