1	The pain of a false rape claim 'is not a pain I would necessarily have spared' innocent men With how out of control punishment is for accused rapists, I am surprised that more false accusations do not turn into murder/suicides. Consider the guys who have to live under a fucking bridge in florida because there is no housing far enough away from a school that they can get a house. I cannot even imagine how it would feel to be one of those guys and be innocent.	/r/MensRights	23/09/10 11:14 PM
9	The pain of a false rape claim 'is not a pain I would necessarily have spared' innocent men I would be almost 100% certain that the survey in question was not worded the same way as the conclusion was specified (and she did not mention a source...). It is incredibly common among prominent feminist authors to basically make up statistics, like the infamous "one in three girls will be raped". One of the more common "manipulating" of the stats would be that having sex while intoxicated at all = rape. So they turn a question that is: Have you ever had intercourse while intoxicated by any s…	/r/MensRights	23/09/10 11:07 PM
5	I was raped by a female who knew I was compromised. What hope is there for me for justice? Should I even try? Ironic how many people feel this way when it happens to a dude and he feels violated, but if it were a woman they would be all screaming for the rapists blood. Fuck all of you hypocrites. P.S. In the unlikely event that you would respond the same way if a girl had the same story, I would retract the hypocrite part.	/r/MensRights	15/09/10 11:08 PM
3	This Clinton Portis issue is a MensRights issue. He complains about women being in a men's locker room and is forced to apologize? Are men allowed in a WNBA locker room? From: http://www.nydailynews.com/ny_local/2010/09/13/2010-09-13_ines_sainz_accepts_jets_coach_woody_johnsons_apolgy_in_sex_harass_flap_says_cant.html "Sainz said she "never heard something sexual" from the players, but noted one called her a "bonita señorita" - a pretty lady." This leaves me awfully confused, there is a huge deal being made of it, and the most sexual thing said to her was calling her pretty lady? Seriously? Is that a big enough deal that it needs nationwide media coverage? Young…	/r/MensRights	15/09/10 05:10 PM
1	Allowing a rapist to go free is never as wrong as punishing a man for a rape he didn't commit I have not been trolling you, I agree absolutely that they are both wrong and should be avoided at all costs. My point is that the judicial system is not going to be correct 100% of the time, and IMHO, it is better to err on the side of not punishing an innocent.	/r/MensRights	15/09/10 03:36 PM
2	Allowing a rapist to go free is never as wrong as punishing a man for a rape he didn't commit Upgoating for actually answering the question. Concerning the methodology, I consider it faulty (though I do not have a better solution), but somewhat acceptable for use in healthcare. Because, like you said, they need to figure out some way to allocate the resources. That being said, it would be COMPLETELY inappropriate to try and apply similar methodology to the criminal justice system. There are enough unethical situations that this type of analysis results in when looking at health care (and…	/r/MensRights	14/09/10 11:34 PM
1	Allowing a rapist to go free is never as wrong as punishing a man for a rape he didn't commit I am sorry if I only implied that, I meant to make it rather explicit. Not sending an innocent to jail is DEFINITELY worth allowing a guilty person to go free. In a way, justice HAS been served by not punishing the innocent person. Emotion and vindictiveness should not play a part in the justice system. The innocent accused has far more to lose than the actual victim does to gain. Think of it this way: Situation 1 (innocent person not convicted): 1 innocent person suffers (the victim) 1 guilty p…	/r/MensRights	14/09/10 10:46 PM
2	Allowing a rapist to go free is never as wrong as punishing a man for a rape he didn't commit Legally? Yes I have, since I have definitely been too drunk to consent. Remember, not all (or even a majority of) rapes are a Kimbo Slice looking fellow jumping out of a bush and beating and raping you. Even if they were, I am still absolutely confident that a lifetime of punishment and suffering for something I am not guilty of would be worse to me (IMHO) than being raped. I can not fathom how any reasonable person could feel otherwise, then again I am quite pragmatic and able to deal with emot…	/r/MensRights	14/09/10 09:46 PM
6	Allowing a rapist to go free is never as wrong as punishing a man for a rape he didn't commit It is because the concept is faulty, there is no accurate way to turn pain and suffering into accurate statistics. It is completely arbitrary, despite what some personal injury lawyers would have you think. Any sort of numerical analysis you could come up with would have to be able to evaluate what the perceived suffering cost of drug use (or assault, or any crime from which recovery is possible) would be, and compare that to the suffering cost of being unlawfully imprisoned and the associated a…	/r/MensRights	14/09/10 09:22 PM
5	Allowing a rapist to go free is never as wrong as punishing a man for a rape he didn't commit I could not disagree more, I would far rather someone perpetrated an act of violence on me (rape, assault, just about anything short of killing or permanently disfiguring or crippling me) that to be unlawfully imprisoned for rape. (Along with which comes a scarlet letter that you must effectively bear for the rest of your life, which is also unconstitutional, but I digress). There is no way that I could be convinced that an act of violence against me that did not permanently injure me or kill me…	/r/MensRights	14/09/10 09:00 PM
5	Allowing a rapist to go free is never as wrong as punishing a man for a rape he didn't commit Viewing individuals as statistics for "optimization" purposes leads to very bad things. Doing evil for the sake of the "greater good" is still evil. The world would be a terrible place if the government were encouraged to treat it's citizens with the eye of an insurance adjuster. It allows you to justify all sorts of horrendous treatments of citizens. An example: If we torture this pothead he will tell us who his dealer is, and if we torture that dealer, we can find out who his supplier is, hope…	/r/MensRights	14/09/10 08:49 PM
