No, it implies what I am actually saying, not whatever the heck it is that you keep trying desperately but incoherently to imagine I am saying - that all allegations should be taken seriously, and investigated thoroughly, and that some of them, based on the particular facts of each individual case, will turn out to not be rape.

It is not as though you are not "calling it rape" based on a full investigation.

. Well, duh, that's obvious. All we have to go on are what the magazine published.

You are not "calling it rape" based on particular details for which you find implausible. Again, your "silent consent" and your disbelief in "silent victims".

People at colleges all over the country are having to make judgement calls and decisions (ours happen to be theoretical and without consequence for anyone). I'm not sure what your point is? I would not find the male student in that scenario guilty of rape. Neither did Swarthmore. You would., although you never did say what the punishment should be. So what is your point again?

Wait... You ARE making a general point from the Swarthmore example. So you agree with me. Ohhhhh, you almost had yourself confused there.

But now that you know that the Swarthmore incident resulted in punishment. Now what?

Isn't it cool how your devil's advocate from that other thread conveniently disappears?

That you conflict yourself and, the sad part, are unaware of the conflict.

Your mixing apples and oranges isn't very coherent to whatever the heck you are trying to say.

What a reach, don't strain yourself. With swarthmore example, I laid it out as a thought experiment. And specifically said lets stipulate that these are the facts.

That you conflict yourself and, the sad part, are unaware of the conflict.

. And I'm sure that if I asked you to specify the conflict, that you'd just ignore in your typical passive aggressive fashion, so I won't bother.

Do you not see how this viewpoint doesn't challenge better handling of claims but, instead, encourages what is already happening in the dismissal of claims that do not automatically fit the "formula of rape"?

Been trying to figure out what you are grasping at Dr. Phil.

I think you are trying to say that by not agreeing with a more expansive definition of rape that I am being dismissive of some claims? Is that it?

Are you pretending to have struggled to grasp this? How unfortunate.


Swarthmore update:

I am not opposed to his filing a lawsuit if he maintains he was wrongfully accused and wrongfully punished by the school. As I said many threads ago, schools sometimes expel students to save their reputations even if an official investigation would yield inconclusive or find false allegations. This sometimes even happens when the accuser recants. Unfortunately, many of the accused in the bolded instance are unable to sue the school. I know one man in particular to whom this applies.

Is that suppose to be proof that this is the same student in the example I gave from the Phillymag story? It's clearly not the same case.

Is that suppose to be the same case that we were discussing earlier, the one that I posted as a "thought experiment"?

Why did you edit your post where you asserted it is clearly not the same case as the one you posted? Are you now uncertain?

When you say "bolded instance" are you referring to the link you provided or something else that I'm missing?

You'll have to show me where in the article it says that.
