Your so called folk wisdom is neither folksy nor wise. The actual threat of rape most women face will be from friends or acquaintances, or even STRANGERS of the SAME race, not from a stranger of a different race.
...........
Once again this is true as long as women only hang with friends acquaintances and strangers of same race.

However, this dynamic changes when women start to mix it up with people other races. This is especially true for white women mixing it up with black men. But not so much true for black women mixing it up with white men.

I don’t know why this dogs you out.

Put another way black women in an oriental neighborhood face less risk than an oriental woman in a black neighborhood. Heck, a significant number of black women would just beat up the little chinese guys if they tried to hit on them.

There’s some neighborhoods you don’t want to go into. Sadly too many white women never get the memo in time. Perhaps they watched to Kill A Mockingbird and so had on ideological blinders.

The ideological blinders I see are the one you have donned.

Once again this is true of women of all races and circumstances; that they are more likely to be raped by a member of their own race than by someone of a different race; and they are more likely to be raped by a friend or acquaintance than by a stranger.

You seem to see people as members of a group rather than as an individual, as ascribe the likelihood of their innocence or guilt based, not upon the evidence, but upon racial crime statistics; guilty by racial association is your only argument.

It is not in any way shape or form “absurd” to consider the plight of a black man unjustly accused of rape; there have been cases of unjust accusations of rape before and there will be again.

Neither is citation of crime statistics in any way indicative that false accusations are “absurd” even if the accusation is against one who is a member of a racial group that is disproportionately involved in criminality.

As I pointed out to you; Chuck Berry was so cognizant of the ‘consensual until we got caught’ situation that was depicted in TKaMB - that he used to take a topless picture of any white woman that wanted to have sex with him, so that it would be that much harder to claim after the fact that she was an unwilling participant.

Was Chuck Berry “absurd” to think that, in the society he lived in, a woman confronted with being a “n*gger lover” (as Atticus was called), might level an unjust accusation of rape after the fact? Was Chuck Berry “absurd” to guard himself against this?

Is it “absurd” to think that a woman might unjustly accuse a man of rape after consensual sex if she thinks she might benefit from it being thought of as rape rather than her being thought of as “loose” or “immoral” or a “n*gger lover”?
