It's kind of sad that you can't when your talking about sexism. I like to do a stress test on that inability to grasp at the obvious with some of my female friends and I'm sure it would hold true for some males as well. |
Yes, that's the thing I wonder. And really my statement questioning the charges isn't even sexism. The name calling was more harsh, that's about it. Here in the US as you stated women are basically winners off the bat, but if a male "cries" rape they are questioned completely on if they are even telling the truth and if it really happened because (use godlike tone here) *he is male and men can't be raped.*
If the same applies worldwide, like it probably does, and the Swedes protect women as strongly as the US then any women can call rape and the book will be thrown at someone without question or a truly fair trial. Which is why I am calling this entire thing into question. Did he rape her or is she crying foul? Did they have unprotected or protected sex? Who actually initiated the act? These are all questions that need to be answered before anything major judgment is passed. If the answer is True, either, Assange, he is guilty. False, either, her or him; throw this out. False, unprotected, him; could probably hit him with it since its illegal everywhere to lie if your using protection or not.
