The leaflet focuses on young girls - and there is no difference at that age.

So it's still neglecting boys. 😛

Apparently adult women are affected four times as much as men - however, that doesn't tell us if there are more women than men.

I don't understand all of that believe women stuff

It's kind of an emotional apeal

We have an instinct to protect women, and that sidelines men.

But sometimes they make up fakse accusations

They do. It's another kind of emotional appeal

Shouldn't we side with caution and believe the accused until they are proven guilty?

We need total fairness in courts.

But we don't seem to get that

Correction: I misread you

Sorry

We need to side with neither

But even outside of court we shouldn't just believe that accuser

Not the accuser or the accused

It needs to be a case of not believing or disbeliving

You stay impartial, in other words

You can stay impartial but I tend to believe the accused until proven otherwise

Because the damage down by not believing them is so horrible

Innocent until proven guilty

Yes, absolutely, innocent until proven guilty is important - but it needs to apply both ways.

We don't automatically take either side because either side could be wrong - or lying

If we start to take the side of the accused, what happens is this whole thing becomes a pendulum swinging the other way. It'll swing hard in favour of the accused, and then the accuser, and then back. What we really need is for the pendulum to stop, or the next generation will be fighting to swing it the other way.

That's my take on it anyway.

Ah, sorry if I came over a bit 'super hard-core debating mode @Uberduperdrew , I've been debating too much recently. Lol.

So how is @everyone tonight? Are we all doing good?

Sick

Flu I guess?

It is the season. I think Blue orange is down with it too.

I'm glad I got a flu shot

I'm so glad that mom who made her stepson live under the stairs is going to jail

Got a pretty hefty sentence too

Harry Potter IRL?

Wow, really?

Yeah she got more time than the kid's dad

28 years
