Not all the time of course.<\/p>\n
If they say they\u2019ll be ready to go out in five minutes, there is a tiny possibility you could be waiting a smidgen longer.<\/p>\n
Or more.<\/p>\n
But when they say they have been sexually abused, you must believe their version of events.<\/p>\n
Forget the fact that people lie. Forget the fact that memory is not that reliable. Forget the fact that people are vindictive. Forget all that.<\/p>\n
There\u2019s a new law of human nature.<\/p>\n
A woman will never ever lie about sexual abuse.<\/p>\n
At least, that\u2019s what they<\/em> say.<\/p>\n Some posit the following logical explanation:<\/p>\n No one wants everyone else to know that they have been sexually abused. Ergo, (Sorry. It felt like an ergo moment. It\u2019s certainly shorter than writing therefore. Don\u2019t worry \u2013 I noticed the irony) if they tell you that which they wouldn\u2019t want you to know, it must be true.<\/p>\n The truth is, there is something to it. There always is. There is a stigma attached to being sexually abused. There\u2019s no getting around that. It\u2019s not the same as accusing someone of keying your car.<\/p>\n But on the other hand there is the element of vengeance and retribution. It\u2019s not impossible that a woman would want to take revenge on a man for some reason. Maybe he didn\u2019t open the door for her. Or worse, maybe he did. Maybe he liked her enough to ask her out, or even more catastrophically maybe he didn\u2019t. Or maybe he really was just an unpleasant male that she thought did something that was worth some kind of retribution. And if a woman hates you to the point of taking revenge, it can\u2019t be impossible for her to put herself in an embarrassing position to get back at you.<\/p>\n Especially in this day and age. Where sexual abuse is right up there on the list of the top two most evil things that can be done by a human being, along with the even more egregious sin of \u2018disagreeing with me\u2019. Society looks upon abusers with a most severe eye and the mere mention of a possibility of a suspicion of it, can ruin a man\u2019s life.<\/p>\n Yet people still wonder what she gets out of it.<\/p>\n If I haven\u2019t made it clear, I\u2019m suggesting that one of the things a woman can get out of a false accusation of sexual abuse, is revenge.<\/p>\n And the sympathy and respect that millions of people have towards real victims of abuse.<\/p>\n Oh, and not to mention the million dollars raised for them by the person who started their gofundme page.<\/p>\n Was that really so difficult for them to work out?<\/p>\n I suppose so.<\/p>\n There is also something even more problematic in giving one group of people power over another.<\/p>\n And that is, that you\u2019re giving one group of people power over another.<\/p>\n Now if at this point you\u2019re asking the obvious question, what\u2019s wrong with giving one group of people power over another, I would like to alert you to the fact that apart from being totally immoral it is also very difficult to decide who should be in the group with the power. Inevitably, everybody wants to be in that group and it is very hard to get volunteers to be in the \u2018you can have power over me\u2019 group. Historically speaking there has always been some sort of altercation between the two groups as they attempted to sort out this intractable problem.<\/p>\n Even after it has been decided who is who, there is often a lot of nasty unpleasantness for the group without the power. I imagine this explains much of their desire not to be in that group in the first place.<\/p>\n Dictators have had power over their subjects, men over women, whites over blacks, religious priests over their followers.<\/p>\n I think I can safely speak for most of those in the oppressed group, when I say that they didn\u2019t like it very much.<\/p>\n Then came a period when some people said enough is enough. Let\u2019s not do that anymore. Why have a society where one group of people has power over another and uses it for their own ends and personal enjoyment. Let\u2019s send everyone into therapy and they can sort out their feelings of inferiority and their depression due to a lack of personal achievement, without effecting everyone else.<\/p>\n Yes $75 – $150 a session for a mere fifty minutes is expensive, but it\u2019s even more expensive to rebuild that village the marauding hoard have just raised to the ground.<\/p>\n And many agreed.<\/p>\n No one group should have power over another. We tried it in the past and I\u2019m not convinced that for a lot of people, it worked out too well. Let\u2019s not do that again.<\/p>\n Then during the period of time when this idea of one group not having power over another was being implemented, a problem arose. You see, while some people genuinely thought the whole thing was a good idea, others thought it was a good idea, but that their group should be an exception.<\/p>\n I\u2019m not sure this problem has actually been solved.<\/p>\n But we worked hard and lo and behold, did quite well. The idea that one group of people should have power over another is now considered immoral by most members of our enlightened, civilized society.<\/p>\n Well done ancestors!<\/p>\n Sadly however, though not for those who like to have power over others, some people are trying to bring it back.<\/p>\n Yes, two thousand years of cultural evolution, enlightenment, scientific discovery and we seem to have either left some co-members of our species behind or we\u2019re in the middle of a dramatic reversal of direction.<\/p>\n Though we\u2019re being very responsible about it. We\u2019re not giving the power back to the groups that used to have it. Oh no. That would be wrong. Instead, some people want to give it to precisely those groups who were the victims during the first round, so that now they can have a turn at being the abuser.<\/p>\n It\u2019s only fair after all. And this is the era of equality.<\/p>\n
