I remember reading several times that the women had private discussions before filing their complaints. I will try to find more articles to confirm this, but this is an interesting one that I just found:

http://www.crikey.com.au/2010/12/02/when-it-comes-to-assange-r-pe-case-the-swedes-are-making-it-up-as-they-go-along/

A few interesting claims here that are probably fairly easy to verify:

- the second woman "published on the internet a guide on how to get revenge on cheating boyfriends". (doesn't prove anything, but interesting for context I think)

- "she has thrown a party in Assange’s honour at her flat after the “crime” and tweeted to her followers that she is with the “the world’s coolest smartest people, it’s amazing!” (and then tried to delete these tweets)

- "But then neither Arden nor Wilén complained to the police but rather “sought advice”, a technique in Sweden enabling citizens to avoid just punishment for making false complaints. They sought advice together, having collaborated and irrevocably tainted each other’s evidence beforehand. Their SMS texts to each other show a plan to contact the Swedish newspaper Expressen beforehand in order to maximise the damage to Assange."

Ok.  I have to say this.

Fuck you.

"Women can be crazy" what kind of sexist remark is that.

No serously.  Using one mentally ill woman as a basis for juding all women when the large amount of rape cases go unreported and the ones that do are hard to find rapists guilty because of bullshit made up defenses like that.

Seriously you are saying because you know ONE crazy lady, that two women who have never met before somehow both made up a story to the police?

You don't know anyone who's liked to a woman or another man about a condom before?

Don't get your panties in a knot Kasz , but you're awfully naive if you don't think that a women would make up  rape allegations to create trouble for a guy. NJ5's article links don't really help your argument either.

As for the last question in this post, I honestly don't know anyone who's ever done that, nor can I imagine how you could "lie" about using a condom, and the girl not realising that the guy isn't wearing one. And I also don't think it's rape unless the girl realises, tells the guy to stop, but he doesn't, she struggles etc. (typicall rape scenario).

If they have sex (consensually, with the gil thinking that the guy's wearing a condom), and after they do the deed the girl realises that the guy wasn't wearing a condom, then sorry sister, that ain't rape, or abuse or anything.

Because ex girlfriends have never been abused and raped.  I mean, girlfriends can't be sexually abused right?  They chose to date the person?

Seriously.  Grow up.

1)  Would some women do that?  Yes?

Would msot women?  No.

Is the number of women who make up rape even remotely statistically significant when it comes to rape charges? 

No.

2) Yes it is!  THAT IS TOTALLY RAPE!  You have nonconsentially had sex with a women because you told her you were wearing a condom when you weren't.  It would be no different if a woman said she'd have sex with you... but not anal sex, then you stuck it in her anus.  That's rape.  You've done something specifically that she told you not to do and you violated her.  Whether she knew or not until after the fact is irrelvent.

No, in fact the most cases of rape and sex abuse are during relationships but also in most cases it ends up an act of revenge....something that is normal for the rich and/or the famous... Two people break up...five years later the guy became famous/rich while she is still an Clean lady, office worker etc....She feels like a failure and feels life is not fair..Then accuse him for a sex crime;..  Pay me some money or I make it public.....Either way she will have her revenge...  That's why I wrote   Yeah a sex crime against his ex-gf?    She had to accusse him immediately, how longer you wait how less people will believe you especially when he became famous;.and that in a combination with an search by interpol and the fact that he may not have a lawyer when he get caught says a lot...

Interpol searchs him for a sex crime, when they found him he may not have a lawyer....Yeah that says a lot to me..

Not the same thing. Unless she was saying "no" during the sex act, and making an effort to terminate the sex act, then it's not rape. I don't understand how a woman could not sense that the guy was not wearing a condom (I'd at least hope that she'd sense that the guy put his dick and her anus). Anyways, even if she truly didn't sense it, it still shouldn't count as rape. The guy would be a jerk, sure, but he isn't and shouldn't be a rapist.

Plus, how can she even prove that she said she wouldn't have sex without a condom? Did she make him sign something?

A) Yes it is.  Rape is rape.  Whether it is committed via force or deception.

B) Because he asked first if they could have sex without a condom and she said no unless he got an STD test first?  Which he refused then put on a condom which he took off halfway through?


As for feeling it?  I'm guessing you haven't had much expierence with sex?  It's actually pretty easy, I've had a condom fall off before during sex and had to stop the other person because they didn't notice.
