Truth Column July 5

My July 5 Truth column is now on-line.

The issue of false rape allegations is a nasty business. FBI data reveals one in four primary suspects is excluded by forensic DNA testing. These cases are circumstantially clear-cut. But what of alleged ‘rapes’ where the act isn’t disputed but consent is?

"If he doesn’t want to deal with the possible repercussions of sex with a paralytic female which, without over-statement, could ruin his life, then he needs to keep it zipped up. Surely though, such incidents do not warrant police intervention and all the ensuing media mayhem. "

The problem is that the law needs changing. If a guy finds paralytic female and he is relatively sober I agree that is rape. However the way the law works they both could had a lot to drink but neither are paralytic he can still be charged and convicted as she claims she would not have consented if completely sober. There are many men who wake up with someone they would not have gone to bed with if sober. They just shut up about it.

It is a sexist double standard that assumes the Male is always the controller of events while the Female is always a put upon victim who carry's no blame for her actions. Anyone who's actually been in social situations in NZ with alcohol involved knows this stereotype is sheer nonsense....
