1.  Did you read the SI article (relaying experience of one woman who is not a plaintiff)?

2.  Do you believe all 22 women are just making up the accusations of unwanted sexual-related activities by Watson?  Even half of them?

I could believe one or two or even 5 doing that.  But 22?  C'mon, man . . .

Wasn't referring to the article at all. The list is long and distinguished of those who've made stuff up and perjured themselves with false accusations. See Jussie Smollett, Shari Papini, and most of the bureaucrats in DC.

It's no wonder women won't report sexual assaults and, when reported, prosecutors won't prosecute.  They end up with someone like cardcrimson on the jury.  It only takes one to let a rapist walk free.

C'mon, man.  That's out of line.

No.  Casting aspersions on all those women is out of line.  I've known a couple of women who were sexually assaulted and didn't report it because they expected cops and prosecutors to doubt their claims.  That is a MUCH larger problem than any false accusations.

There are a lot of really disgusting comments in this thread.  I think less of some of you now.  It's disheartening to see this sort of thing from Stanford alums.

What are you talking about? I made no mention of the women at all, I've not read the story, and I said that. Period.

I merely had a chuckle at the comment that people don't make stuff up. The news is filled with stories of people making shit up. Heard of Jussie Smollett? How about Shari Papini? Not to mention any of the BS over the last several decades in DC.

That said, to jump to the conclusion that I'd discount or ignore whatever the women said is utter BS and entirely unfair and out of line. Talk about casting aspersions. Good grief. FWIW, I have a 15 year old daughter, and take sexual assault, and any sexual misconduct extremely seriously.
