I was making the point that no man should ever be alone with a young athlete. Especially performing treatments. All it would take is one unstable adolescent and his career is shot. That’s a “for instance” where you take this guys other behavior and child porn off the table.

here are scores of abuse victims who just go on with their lives after the incident - because it's FAR more trouble and trauma for them to go through the criminal justice system.


If it's actual sexual assault we're talking about here and not just men being pigs, I disagree.

Let's take a look at some of the things Harvey Weinstein (and DJT) were accused of. Fondling, making obscene overtures to unwilling women. None of those things are likely to end in a felony conviction.


If some of those things are as bad as they say, it wouldn't have gone on for nearly as long as it did if the women involved had opened up about it much earlier.

quote:

Unless a dozen of you come out at the exact same time, people are ready to listen to the allegations and take you seriously.


100 people coming out with allegations about sexual assault at the same time doesn't prove anything. Is Donald Trump a predator because a bunch of women came out claiming sexual assault right before the election?

Cosby's allegations at least make you pause because he's never outright denied doing anything and has given some of the most bizarre explanations I've ever heard.

Oh. Unlike DJT who admitted to it on a hot mic?

See - you (and everyone) already form opinions on the truthfulness of allegations depending on who the accused is. How does that make victims more likely to come forward?

If you were an aspiring actress in Hollywood and you went to the LAPD a year ago saying that Harvey Weinstein showed you his dick after you agreed to go to his hotel suite, what do you think would've happened? Arrested and put on trial?

When do you think all of Clinton's victims spoke out? (I'll help: it was right before elections).

Good boy. Keep shifting focus and mudding the definition of sexual assault. Soon we'll forget these victims altogether and get back to identity politics.

Because we want evidence. In American the accused are innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

My personal belief is that Weinstein is probably a scummy guy. I think there's enough evidence out there to prove that much. Whether all of the accusations or true or if they happened exactly they way the stories suggest, I cannot say.

THAT'S WHY WOMEN DON'T OUT THEIR ABUSERS!

There is no evidence for pulling your dick out, or asking for a massage and letting the towel drop, or grabbing a woman by the pussy, or walking through a dressing room at the Ms. Universe pageant!

People like you are only able to convict if there's video that shows penetration. It is why people stay silent.

So we are just supposed to take every chicks word without question? Some women are spiteful trashy creatures and will slander an ex they think wronged them just because.

No matter what you do, someone is going to disparage your actions--speak up, name abuser, don't name abuser, stay silent. Just look at the varied responses in this thread.


Why people don't report abuse more often:

I don't understand that graph. If you're going to get yelled at anyway, why not lay the foundation to punish Bob?

Here's your problem GaryMyNeverTrump friend.
Trump's accuser for the October surprise, has been thoroughly discredited for bringing false accusations before, and admitting to it.

President Clinton's accusers, well, Governor Clinton's accusers, were smeared for years, but never discredited or found to be lying. These women have maintained their accusations, and have never changed their stories, either. That bastion of women's rights, Mrs. Clinton, has done her utmost to ensure that these accusers never get any traction.

My apologies to the rest of you for going PoliBoard, here, I'm not a denizen there, nor do I really want to be.

Second apology for not posting links, but it's all out there with the requisite internet search or Lexis/Nexis.
