So the highly inconvenient rule of law should be sidestepped, to drag the names of alleged assailants through the mud. It doesn’t matter if a ‘few’ innocent men’s lives are ruined. Only those who can somehow ‘prove’ they are pure as the driven snow, should be excused the opprobrium of being born male!

Talk about shifting the burden of proof!

What a f@cked up world!
You mean. having your less-than-white past dragged out into public, the way women have been routinely treated in rape trials since rape trials began?
