Oh, bullshit. Women get raped all the time, and that's a fact.

If the pendulum has swung a little too far toward believing the woman,
that's regrettable, but completely understandable given that until very
recently, men and boys simply said "it was consensual", and that was
their magic get-out-of-jail-free card. Womens' and girls' own families
wouldn't believe them. I saw that first hand.

Then there's the matter of the boss's offers the woman can't refuse.
"Put out if you want a good annual review." Happens all the time.
Happened to my girlfriend in 1985: When she wouldn't put out for the
boss, he wrote her up for *everything* and made her work life a living
hell.

Yeah, this METOO stuff is just sooo unfair to us men. We have to keep
our hands off women who aren't our girlfriends. We can't lear or howl
or whistle or give obviously lewd compliments. No more elbow-tittie
or ass-grab. What a terrible imposition on us!
