Sounds like you are perfectly fine with false accusations that destroy someone's life, because you've personally concluded it doesn't happen very often.  You'd be surprised.  Some girls and women make up things to get attention.  They can be lying through their teeth and very convincing until their stories fall apart.

I would not use terms like "rapey frat boys" unless and until, at a minimum, there are arrests in this case.  Until then, you are simply embracing a narrative because it aligns with your existing beliefs. [/quote]

I'm not the PP. But given the facts that

1. there are many, many rapes that women did not report
2. false accusations of rape are rare
3. one of the reasons women do not report their rapes is that people assume they're lying

I'll go with the idea that when a woman accuses somebody of rape, she's telling the truth unless there's evidence that she's not. Whereas you seem to be going with the idea that when a woman accuses somebody of rape, she's lying unless there's evidence she's not.[/quote]
