		<description><![CDATA[We fundamentally agree that there needs to be an end to rape and a revolution to demolish rape culture.  I hate to tell you though, false rape accusations are not rare at all--between 8% and 15% by the police estimates, which ironically-by-design are not included in the FBI&#039;s statistics.
 http://www.theforensicexaminer.com/archive/spring09/15/

And that doesn&#039;t speak to the 40% of cases cleared by &quot;exceptional means&quot;, i.e. no charges brought, etc, he-said-she said, etc, woman&#039;s boyfriend was a cop, etc....

But the inherent problem is as I see it is false rape reporting actually effects the possibility of the issue being taken to heart by the wider public, and specifically men who definitely can relate to violence( because men are the primary targets of violence and death at all times) but not this kind of violence.

To build a movement based on one lie is shaky ground; to build a house with one bad brick is not a disaster waiting to happen--but to build a foundation with weak bricks, mudbricks, and half bricks makes the house fall down eventually.

False rape reporting IS advocating violence against men, and until these women who falsely report are held accountable, there can be no justice, and the wider audience of allies will continue to remain passive in defense of a lop-sided issue.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I am not sure you understand the purpose of this article. I am not arguing it should be a cause above all other human rights abuses. I am saying it shouldn&#039;t take a backseat EVER. All human rights atrocities so be on equal footing.

As for false allegations, those are a very, very, very small percentage of actual rapes reported. To believe that false rape allegations make up more of a percentage than statistically exists, or to passively promote the idea that most accusations are false (when in reality, that&#039;s not the case)--thus furthering a harmful victim-blaming, slut-shaming rape culture--AND TO COVERTLY ADVOCATE VIOLENCE AGAINST ANYONE is to deny the existence of rape and how it ravages societies.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I don&#039;t know about that--after all, the socializing of males ( the sexing) is the exact thing that leads to rape. In a simple phrase: If we raised both boys and girls to be warriors, we would have little, or no rape. Put another way, baby boy soldiers in the Congo who rape, are themselves victims of inter-generational homicide,often having lost their fathers.

Promoting rape as a cause above all other human rights abuses, is like building a temple on top of dead men&#039;s bones. Worse, false rape accusations contribute to a situation where women invite the next oppressor to sit down at the table and dine, while the children play on the depleted uranium fields of dead fathers.
