when the problem we have is now with the #Metoo movement People HAVE been wrongly accused or automatically seen as "guilty" without evidence. And once something has been said then that's it . It's a messed up society ,because real predators & rapists get away with it or only get a light sentence in prison. |

Just gets tiring and boring after a while, seeing exactly the same sequence go down time and time again. So yeah, it annoys people and makes them angry. What also makes people angry, is the actual stats on sexual assault/rape. And how often the abusers get away with it. But still, we must think of the 2 men per year that get took to court with false accusations, over the thousands of victims of actual abuse.

I acknowlede Low conviction & injustice when real sexual predators get away with it , I think that makes all of us angry. Yet you don't want to admit that false reports still happen? , why is it always battle of the sexes with blame? . When exactly was I blaming all women?. Bare in mind I'm a woman myself |

Would love to see where niamh said false reports do not happen.
Its a 'battle of the sexes with blame' as stats tell us that its..a battle of the sexes, given 98% of sexual abuse is committed by males. If it was 50/50 or something yet all that got spoke of was males abusing then I would take your point. But its nowhere near that. Edit. Anyway, done this dance before many times and CBA as it goes in circles. Not even sure why I replied tbh. But won't be replying to the 'women do it too!' or whatever comes next.

I can't see where Cuba Gooding groped the woman? ,the footage is potato quality ,but all I see is a knee touch and the other guy is actually being affectionate towards Gooding . I've seen videos of fans crossing the line & getting too touchy feely with celebrities . |

IMO what happened is, the woman approached Gooding as a fan and had no problem with the encounter. The man who was with her DID have a problem with the encounter (jealousy, generally being an arsehole, etc.) and has said something at the time and then this has blown up from that point into her saying she was groped / assaulted in an effort to appease her controlling companion. That's a lot of guesswork but it's the basics of what I can see in that video: She comes over enthusiastically, he engages with her briefly, there's no sign of discomfort or of there being a problem, and then a (drunk looking, IMO) male appears from the sidelines and behaves in that passive-aggressive drunken attempt at intimidation that I'm sure anyone who has ever spent much time in a bar or club knows all too well. Because that's the uncomfortable truth about the VAST MAJORITY of false sexual assault allegations that do exist. The false report is made because a boyfriend or partner has discovered something that happened consensually, and the woman has claimed that there wasn't consent out of fear of what an aggressive and dominating partner will do if they find out the truth. |

I was referring to your comment about how you're glad you're not single because no doubt you'll get accused of all sorts. Like women are constantly accusing men who chat them up of sexual harassment, it would be like me coming in here saying "I'm glad I'm not single, these days you're libel to be raped if you even say hi to a man". . .

...(..from the vid...)...his hand definitely went to the area of her breast, it did look as though he may have touched her ..but when he withdrew his hand, he was holding her hand so looked more as if he was taking her hand, which he then kissed...it could have been though that he also did touch her breast...its so difficult without audio as well...

...I have no idea why he would touch her at all to speak to her...why the necessity to put a hand on her thigh or anywhere else to enable him to have a conversation or whatever...I don’t though see on any of the vids..(..some are a little longer..)...where she pushed his hand away from her thigh...

...why do (some) males feel the need for physical contact when talking to a female ...like the woman can’t hear them unless she’s being touched...

...I guess because the allegation seems to specifically be her breast being touched ..whereas her thigh obviously was..(..this is starting to sound a bit like which part of the chicken do you prefer eeek..)..that’s impossible to see from the angle being shown as he reaches his hand out toward her breast but then takes her hand which was also in that area...so did he touch her breast as well is I would say, uncertain...and that’s apparently the allegation...

Now, unless it happened repeatedly when I had said to stop touching me (which I almost always say..which often turns the man quite..aggressive) I would not personally class it as sexual assault or anything, but I can see why some women do, as its so unnecessary and ****ing common as hell, and as I said they wouldn't dream of dong it to other men (or most of them wouldn't) and really, it needs to end. I can understand the touches and stuff if you are in a flirting situation and its reciprocated, but it tends not to be that at all..its just default, to bloody stroke a woman you are talking to, or touch their legs, hell I have even had job interviews where instead of a handshake at the end, the guy wants a hug! Its..ridiculous and I really don't think a lot of men know quite how common it is for women. Hence thinking its an overreaction, when it could be the 4th bloke that day thats done it! As I said, I almost always tell them to stop..only times I haven't have been when its been bosses and I wanted to keep my job, and the men get defensive 'touching your leg is not like raping you or something', aggressive 'I am only touching your leg, could be much ****ing worse', paranoid 'oh so you are going to report me for sexual assault for just touching your leg..or abusive 'you are an ugly twat anyway, I was just being nice'. All of these are actual reactions I have had from men when I ask them to stop touching me. Nicely too..I am always polite..though maybe shouldn't be..until they ignore it and keep doing it, at which stage I become less 'nice'. It was 100x worse when I was pregnant, for people randomly touching me. Men I knew thinking its fine to grab my tits and say how they have obviosuly grown a lot Not, with friends, I didn't mind that much, but this was just like..random guys I vaguely knew. Or they would start pervy conversations about how theres nothing sexier than a pregnant woman, how they wanted to be breastfed, etxc. It was unbelievable really. Also, thats when the touching from random women started, old ladies coming up to me in the street to stroke my belly and ask when I am due, etc. I get that a lot of the times its trying to be nice..BUT..women are not ****ing public property, even when pregnant. Rant over
