If anything that law would make it less likely for men and women to come forward because if the court believes they're lying they will go to prison for a long time.

As with the rape itself, that would be a case of innocent until proof of the contrary. The court "believing" something shouldn't be sufficient to send anyone anywhere. 

Unfortunately the justice system isn't based on truth. It's based on who can tell the more convincing story.

The only problem with the way it's done now is that men and women don't come forward quick enough so an examination can be taken, tearing, bruises, dna etc. Without any of that it's basically impossible to prove a rape without witness'.
