ALERTER'S COMMENTS

This person is saying that if a woman says she did not consent to intercourse, that her statement means literally nothing--that a rape victim's testimony provides "no reason" to think she was raped.

This misogyny and rape-enabling attitude doesn't belong anywhere, let alone DU.

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Sat Jan 3, 2015, 07:05 PM, and the Jury voted 1-6 to LEAVE IT.

Explanation: Don't hurt yourself, alerter.. that's quite a stretch.
