[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am disappointed with the level of misogyny shown on this thread.  It is ridiculous.  [/quote]

Questioning the veracity of someone's accusations, as well as the political motivations behind them, is not misogyny.[/quote]

+1  PP--I think there may be just one--refuses to understand this.  If a woman accuses a man one dislikes she must be believed.[/quote]

[b]This kind of incorrect simplifying is misogynistic.[/b] Take an allegation of assault and attempted rape down to that is misogynistic.

Women are done with this. DONE.  We need more representation in congress so that this kind of crap is voted out. [/quote]

No its not.  Misogyny is prejudice/contempt/ towards ALL women.  [/quote]

It is contempt of women that is causing people to ignore that her statement IS evidence.  In old English and American laws, the victim of any crimes of muggings, assault, robbery could have their testimony alone lead to a conviction. It was MISOGYNY that rape was the exception. In the 1970s the law was changed in the US so that rape could be considered like the other crimes - there no longer HAD to be a direct witness to the crime.  And you know who spoke out against that law change? Misogynists who claimed that women were untrustworthy.

It is misogynistic to say "If a woman accuses a man one dislikes she must be believed." It is minimizing sexual assault, and it is implying once again that women cannot be trusted.

It is okay to not believe the evidence against Kavanaugh - it is MISOGYNISTIC to claim there was no evidence.  [/quote]

Holy cow, you’re like a dog with a bone.  You seem to be the only person who is determined to keep arguing about something that doesn’t exist (evidence and/or corroboration - of ANY kind).  You can stop moaning about be WH “spiking” the investigation - which you keep posting - and linking to your absurd article, repeatedly.  It’s truly pathetic that you seem unable to face reality here.
