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”?

Well that is one shaggy dog story.
These stereotypes date from the 1960’s and earlier. The world has changed.
When I used to live in Manhattan there were all the time stories about white women jogging in the park who would be raped and murdered. The perps were never white guys. Everyone would wonder. What were these dumb women thinking? Why did they go to bad sections of the park at the wrong time. Why didn’t someone clue them in?
Answer is they likely weren’t listening. They’d read To Kill A Mockingbird. End of Story.
These days the perps for these kinds of atrocities are likely as not to be illegal aliens.
The last big name perp of this kind was the illegal who killed Chandra Levey. But really, this stuff happens all the time. It just doesn’t make the headlines.
