In support of Dr. Ford

[Brian37]

There have been a few, but even if there weren't, extrapolating from behavior on an internet forum is unwarranted.

I'm sure that you are a bleeding heart liberal when not on the forum  

She finds Ford less believable than I do. I'm pretty neutral on it. My wife, however, doubts Ford due to Ford's inability to remember where it took place, how she got home, etc. My wife remembers all of that. So, your suggestion that a person without empathy for Ford must not understand sexual assault is incorrect, and an insult to women who have been assaulted but don't believe Ford.

But then different people react differently to trauma. For some everything can be remembered in vivid detail. For others they repress the memories because they are too painful. Just because your wife experienced it one way doesn't mean to say that everyone else thinks like her.

The thing is, you're the one who mentioned your wife and used her history to imply that others should also not believe Ford.

I don't know much about the case and haven't been keeping up with the news so I am not going to say one way or another. But what I do know is that you need to be pretty fucked up as a person to lie about something like this regardless of the money. You'd have to be someone who lacks empathy to even suggest otherwise. So your insinuation that Ford is doing it for the money smacks of you just wanting to brush it all under the carpet.

THAT'S IT, ^^^^^^ Right here, and with any trauma. It is literally a form of PTSD, and it happens with assault victims as well.

I believe Ford when she says he did it, just like I believe my mom that she was too scared to look at them, but was able to point out the ally behind the shopping center she was raped in. When you are under extreme stress you can very easily remember vivid details while missing others.

Both with Ford and my mother, they each had very vivid details of different things, while the trauma clouded other things. 

Ford remembered his face, but not the exact location or day. My mom remembered the exact location and day, but had no description of their faces. 

I am sick of this ignoring that false allegations are rampant when they are not.
