One I hope no one would want to erode.There is a difference between being falsely accused and being found not guilty.

Far too often people do act on speculation. The proper thing to do with speculation is to investigate it and see if it holds up.Thanks for the clarification. I got confused there for a moment.
Probably not. But majorities have a long history of becoming scared when a minority stands up to wrongs against them at the hands of a majority.
And it doesn't help when there are fearmongering cretins blowing things out of proportion and not looking at things realistically and trying to get everyone afraid this new empowerment is coming for them (or, often enough, their women).

I did move....if a woman tries to kiss me she can end up in the hospital...even if she's miss Italy
a few more years? be clearAnd again, a few more years and you may get the hang of it

I didn't get your post....U used an idiom...50 or 60, is that clear enough?
This is a recent phenomenon-
don't you think that certain feminist movements (often hijacked by misandrists who have bias towards the male gender) contribute to push deceivers and wicked girls to use this "culture of suspicion towards the heterosexual male" as a weapon?
Why on earth would I say that. It is horrible that he was falsely accused of rape. And I am pretty sure that we can never give him five years back.
Not obligated. But when you quote me expressing a worry, it seems logical that you would address that worry. Instead ypu chose not to do so. My guess is that the worry was a direct hit and sunk your battleship.
They can sue for wrongful termination and libel/slander.
but people treating every claim of rape like the gospel then joining the social media mob which bullies anyone that does not accept said gospel be it a person or business. IE stupid people acting like herd animals.
My assertion was that if you believe you should have reported, then by all means you should have.

Curious. Are you a lawyer? Because in “at Will” states how would that work?
I’m more concerned about the time it takes for financial compensation because even if you win, it takes time to recompense all of that not to mention the legal fees you incur.
I believe I mentioned this in my post not sure what issues are being conflated. My first post very much covered this based on the listed link.
IIRC, women have always been slightly higher in population, but in a significantly weaker social position than men.I think there are more women in the US than men at this time.
I never said it did. But false accusations are illegal in general, including false allegations of rape, and criminal charges have been brought against people who make these false accusations. Plus this issue has only really come up at a time when women are finding empowerment to speak against their attackers. And now there are plenty of jack asses on TV (and online) going on and on about a war against men, how men need to be worried and concerned because it could happen to them, and it's a really hard time to be a man right now - because women are standing up against sexual assault.False rape accusations have nothing really to do with empowerment due to the fact of being false. Unless you want to argue empowerment include making **** up.
There is indeed evidence.
As Sunstone asked, is there any evidence to suggest that false accusations of rape are a serious problem?
There is also the common presumption of guilt for guys accused.As, it seems to me, any time a woman says she was raped it is met with 1) she deserved it, 2) boys will be boys, 3) she should have known better, 4) she shouldn't have been dressed like that, or 5) she's lying. And few, including women, have any interest in hearing the victims out. And then those they accuse become suspiciously defensive and stupid during their hearing, but she's still the one at fault.
How does this compare to other areas of crime and false accusations? Is this rate lower than or higher than than false accusations of theft, robbery, property damage, and assault? And if the number is not higher than 10%, and as low as 2%, is this a widespread and concerting problem or more a problem with a handful of individuals?We've all hashed over the range of statistics (2% to 10%) of confirmed false allegations
in other threads.
I can't argue against that. But it's not looking like that many are falsely accused, not enough to think there is a problem with false accusations of rape but rather a problem with the women these unfortunate guys encountered.There is also the common presumption of guilt for guys accused.
They and victims deserve better treatment than what is common.
I haven't looked into false allegation rates for other crimes.How does this compare to other areas of crime and false accusations? Is this rate lower than or higher than than false accusations of theft, robbery, property damage, and assault?

You aren't blaming the victims of false accusations, are you?But we don't live a world of bubbles, rainbows, and unicorns, so perhaps men should take more accountability for whom they associate with and sleep with.
