Rape is an act that takes place in isolation so that one person's word against another is all we have. We can only use our common sense, intuition, and life experience to decide who is telling the truth. A rapist is not going to rape a woman in front of others and if DNA is left, he and his lawyer only have to say we/they had sex but it was consensual. So I have come to the conclusion that people who always believe the accused in the face of credible testimony by the victims basically don't believe in rape. Or they don't care. It is a waste of time to argue against their denial. They will never admit a misoganist bias against women, but that's what it is. I do feel by the responses this scandal is getting that people as a whole are more willing to listen to women's voices, but then maybe it's just because there are so many of them.
