General Discussion

so while I haven’t been raped or assaulted myself, I do know the turmoil and permanent scars they cause. But I have also seen false allegation of sexual harassment leveled at several company leaders. There was no evidence, the company’s legal dept found a history of the complaint doing the same thing at two previous employers, yet she still got a settlement check to keep the executives’ names out court (& the news). But everyone in that company knew about the false allegation of sexual harassment and it affected those innocent men’s’ reputation as a whisper campaign that followed them.

Roughly 1 out of 3 women in the US are victims of sexual assault. That doesn’t negate that men can be victims of false allegations. This is why our law is based on Innocent until proven guilty in a court of law — not by a spokesperson voicing their thoughts to a media hungry for a story.
