From the archives: An example of a feminist who refused to admit the Duke lacrosse rape accusation was false

Here is an example of a feminist who refused to admit that the Duke lacrosse rape allegations were false.

After the Duke lacrosse players were declared "innocent" by the state's attorney general (his word, not mine), feminists reacted with denial, anger and disappointment. Think about that: some radical feminists apparently would have preferred the accuser to have been brutally raped (or to have the accuser's lie go undetected) as opposed to having the three young men declared "innocent."

Three totally innocent young men were released from a year-long hell, and the only thing that some radical feminists could muster was to angrily deny that the accusations were false or to declare that "something must have happened" the night of the alleged rape. This despite the fact that irrefutable evidence shows that nothing happened.

You see, they had the perfect narrative -- privileged young white male athletes, a poor struggling black woman trying to make her way in the world -- except there was no rape.

Oh, yes, there was a crime -- the woman made a false police report, but I didn't hear a single radical feminist condemn it. Not one.

Is there a better indication of their utter contempt for men and boys wrongly accused of rape?

That may be the saddest, most twisted aspect of that entire case. It is symptomatic of the gender divisive and dysfunctional "rape culture" these unbalanced women have manufactured that presumes rampant, unpunished male subjugation of females. Their misandry has blinded them to the point that they can't even bring themselves to feel happiness for the innocent young men and their families, friends and girlfriends after a nightmare that no innocent person should be forced to endure.

The truly terrible thing is that the vast majority of men loathe and detest rapists. But most men also want false rape claims to be called for what they are -- lies -- and I believe most women share that desire. The feminists do a grave disservice to their mission of raising awareness about rape when they pretend that false claims are not false claims. When they do this, they pit most men and women against the far left fringe zealots for whom truth is secondary to an ideology of victimhood.

And you know the zealots I'm referencing: the ones who say, the innocent be damned.

Thanks for your comment, whoever you are, whatever the hell you are trying to say.

The article linked is a "first person" account of an encounter with a named feminist. If you come on this site to take cheap shots because you don't approve of our purpose, you would do well to spend several hours reviewing the news accounts of false rape reports and then kindly keep your hostility to yourself because we have a lot of readers here who've been victimized by false claims and I am not going to allow trolls to come on one of the few sites that gives them voice to add to their pain.

i like what you're doing, but the stuff about the mass wreckage created by an adult entertainment industry, and feminist goals of replacing marriage with government, seems bizarre to me. lots of people weren't able to achieve education due to circumstances of their youth and can't find work, the notion of self-elected welfare dependency and actual working seems at odds to a labour market. if women are providing these services, men are buying them. i think you should leave this kind of values and choice equation out of it, it confuses things a lot!

Well, I'm not sure what you're referencing Anonymous. This site is devoted to wrongful accusations of sexual assault. We aren't enamored of porn but the only time we reference it, I believe, is to point out that feminists who claim porn leads to rape are wrong, and that's putting it charitably.
