Rape culture still does not exist
Article here. Excerpt:
'Last week, Jillian Santos responded to my column about rape culture, as she did with one of my earliest columns against feminism late last year. As expected, she proceeded to straw-man what I said. I’ve no intention of changing her mind, either, but to attack the toxic misandry spewed frequently under the guise of a perverted form of “justice.” My column wasn’t meant to pander to political correctness, and everyone has a right to be upset by it, but straw-manning me leads nowhere.

In my closing paragraph, I will reiterate and clarify the points I previously made: Nobody is under any moral requirement to automatically believe the victim of any crime, but this is not evidence of societal hostility. I have never denied that rape happens or that victims are entitled to aid, but I am not going to condone what happened at the University of Virginia either. People can and will lie about rape, as they also do about other crimes. Could it be that Jackie was gang-raped at a frat party? Certainly, but evidence examined in a recognized court of law would prove it. Feel free to find any excuse to undermine the rights of the accused, but do not be surprised when people retaliate and point out how sickening that is.'
