And how should the police proceed in this matter? Swab for tear stains? Ask the walls if she was crying? There's no collectible evidence of rape, that means it's not a rape according to this thread!
Oh, so now we're talking about proof as a third party who did not witness the event? And not just "was it rape"? (Because those are different things, Mist) Well then, that becomes more complex. I don't know the answer to that one, because I'm not omniscient and can't flip on a TV and actually rewind the world to peek on everyone's sexual experience. No one in the thread said what was on TV might not be rape, no one. What we said is there was no reason to default to one side's view of what happened.
You're confusing us not defaulting to the woman's position, and believing her word as absolute, with believing a rape we can witness isn't a real one. It's a massive false equivalence, and the only thing that makes it funny is you thought it was a "gotcha" because you so poorly grasped every argument in this thread.
But lets go over. Since I got to watch it--I can say, from a reasonable perspective of our modern society, it was rape. If I, however, was a
normal human investigator--and two
unknownpeople walked up to me, and the female said she was raped, and the male said she consented? I
wouldn't automatically believe the female just because she has a vagina(Though I would treat her like a victim for everything apart from criminal justice). I would investigate, the man AND woman's character, witnesses that night, and a host of other things. But we'd be in luck in this case? Because LITERALLY someone witnessed it, which would be a fine thing in a rape trial, and then if a witness admitted she was raped? I'd cut Ramsay's balls off.
Do you get that, Mist? That is the difference. One is about actually defining rape--which crying women who need to be held down? Pretty easy to define that as rape for me. The other is PROOF in the eyes of a fair justice system. These are not the same things, and trying to intimate they are? As said, is a false equivalence.
