The problem with every discussion about rape I've ever seen is that anyone who might have a valid point that mightn't be completely siding with the person who was supposedly raped gets shat upon. So most people will just go on agreeing with everyone else pretty much (and that's boring).
For example, TF makes what I think is a valid point that - sometimes - supposed rapes that happened while one or both parties are drunk can be utter bullshit, because the woman might think that she wouldn't have had sex with the guy had she been sober, yet she clearly chose (in this hypothetical) to drink lots of alcohol and is now claiming she was raped. Well, this woukd be nonsense in all other instances involving drunkeness, but given this really is a 'he said, she said' situation, this guy can very likely be in a shitty situation. Now he's 'the guy that raped that girl', even if he's cleared by the courts (assuming charges were pressed).
I'm not blaiming the victim or saying rape doesn't happen, but false allegations like this piss me off.
