2	What possible alternative is there...? Legal definitions are not necessarily exhaustive, nor should we solely rely upon them to determine whether or not something is rape. To accept the premise that the legal definition is the sole definition would, in many places, require us to hold that men cannot be raped. That is utterly inconsistent with the values of this sub.	/r/MensRights	21/02/16 12:04 AM
17	What possible alternative is there...? A verdict of 'not guilty' means that the prosecution failed to demonstrate a fact (or set of facts) beyond a reasonable doubt. It is not the same as saying that a thing did not happen, but that the evidentiary threshold has not been met. We do not, technically, find people innocent. Thus, a person may have had sex with another without that person's consent, but there may be a lack of evidence to prove that this occurred beyond a reasonable doubt.	/r/MensRights	20/02/16 07:32 PM
