When is this ever the case other than social media outrage? And that's essentially what we do here. We hear one accuastion and we're calling for the death penatly. Or one woman makes an accusation, and with no knowledge of the case at all, everyone already assumes she's full of shite. False accusations towards a guy are hard and damaging thing, along with a woman who can't get anyone to believe her.

I went to high school, then college, so I'm worried about me being wrongly accused of #metoo.

Accusations take place regardless of this.

not putting yourself in bad situations
It's not fool proof, but you'd be surprised how helpful this is. Like every male on our church staff team either has windows on their doors or don't close their doors when meeting with a female. Sure, accusations can still come up, but you can really help yourself out by being smart ahead of time.
In terms of a one time romp at a party or whatever, honestly how often does it actually happen, if it's innocent, that the woman comes forward with assault claims? Percentage wise? It ends up on the news, but are we claiming it's an epidimic?

With society stepping closer and closer to accusations = guilt, are you worried that one day a girl could falsely claim rape/sexual assault for whatever crazy reason? And that he has to deal with the repercussions as if he's guilty before he's allowed to put up a defense?
I love my sons to death but they are huge nerds. I worry more about them falling in love and being controlled by their first piece of pussy than I do of them being #MeToo'd

You can't deny that perception has changed. And that can affect your life greatly.
Of course it has. Because nobody has any secrets anymore. Because of facebook, twitter, and instagram, I know way more about people I couldn't care less about than I ever wanted to. Someone all the way across the world knows about the steak you had last night. It's insane.
We can solve a lot of our problems by not being so much of an open book. No one cares that much about your life. I mean, people care, but have some secrets for crying out loud.

I'm honestly not worried about it. As long as I teach my son to a) respect women, b) avoid bat shite crazy women, and c) avoid feminists then he should be fine

To be clear, what I'm saying could be taken along the lines of "she dressed like a slut, was asking for it", and that's not it at all, because that too often implies she deserves it. But if you go to a party half naked, to quote George Clooney in Out of Sight, you're ice cream for freaks. Don't do that to yourself. You don't deserve what might happen, but help yourself out.

I'm not too worried. Gonna be difficult for her to prove sexual assault when my son is only attracted to sex bots.

You have no idea how lucky you are.

The only way that will stop is when the liars are faced with the same consequences that they tried to put on the men.

Is that a new episode?

I definitely fear it. I also fear that my daughter may be a real victim and no one will listen to her.
But, can't live in fear. So I'll just do what I can to teach them how to behave.
And then bitch about it on an internet forum.

Hell I'm afraid of me being accused of it now from some chick that blew me in the football parking lot back in the 80s. The stuff they call rape and assault these days we called flirting back then.

All you can do is teach him to say nothing and demand his lawyer.

Yes because overall, boys are more aggressive while dating. They are just by nature. Girl gives a single that it is OK the guy fumbles around trying to do it, he does it, she changes her mind and whether he backs off or not he could be construed as a predator

No. By the time my kids are old enough to have sex, it will be with machines only.

That's some damn strong flirting.

OR
you could actually ready the topic. It clearly states WRONGLY ACCUSED.
And yes, I was very worried, because a guy doesn't have to even do anything wrong. The accusation itself is enough to ruin a young mans life, even if charges are eventually dropped or he is found innocent.
