I wouldn't even bother addressing this, except I notice so many clueless philosophers on social media seem to think it's a central issue. Thank God for lawyers with experience and sense. From the conclusion of the preceding piece:
I know that “Believe Women” is the mantra of the new decade. It is a response to a century of ignoring and excusing men’s sexual assaults against women. But men and women alike should not be forced to blindly accept every allegation of sexual assault for fear of being labeled a misogynist or enabler.
We can support the #MeToo movement and not support allegations of sexual assault that do not ring true. If these two positions cannot coexist, the movement is no more than a hit squad.
