Maxximo, if you are allowed to go public with this I'd wait until you've worked past that anger at women. Regardless of what brought it on it will hurt your cause in the public domain and if you still feel it, it will come out. Society is not yet at the point where men who are angry at women are given a sympathetic hearing. Likewise get that stuff dealt with before you front a jury.

It sounds like you understand the logic but are struggling with the personal stuff, as I mentioned earlier check into seeing a psychologist. Some are really good (and some are not as OnlyOne pointed out).

I JUST WANTED TO ADD THAT I AM A VICTIM OF RAPE FROM THE TIME I WAS 4 UNTIL I WAS 12 BY A FAMILY MEMBER IT TOOK FROM THE TIME I WAS 13& MAKING A COMPLAINT TILL 22 TO GET A CONVICTION OF 29CHARGES, THIS ROCK SPIDER GOT A SENTENCE OF 12YRS REDUCE TO 5YRS REDUCED TO2YRS WITH GOOD BEHAVIOR THAT WAS 18MONTHS SO WITH TIME SERVED BY SENTENCING DAY HE WAS RELEASED & BECAUSE HE WAS A MONTH OFF 17 WHEN HE FIRST STARTED HIS LOWLIFE ACTS HE DIDNT EVEN GET HIS NAME PRINTED IN THE PAPER EVEN THOUGH HE TAUGHT CHILDRENS BASKETBALL. I HAVE EXPERIENCE WHAT IT IS LIKE TO HAVE PEOPLE LOOK AT YOU LIKE CRAP & NOT BELIEVE YOUR SIDE OF THE STORY EVEN THOUGH THERE IS EVIDENCE TO PROVE YOUR CLAIM ITS NOW BEEN 5YRS SINCE COURT & I STILL GET PEOPLE JUDGING ME & I TELL MYSELF I KNOW THE TRUTH I'M A VERY STRONG WILLED DETERMINED SINGLE MOTHER THAT TEACHES MY CHILD THAT WE KNOW THE TRUTH & AT THE END OF THE DAY IT IS ONLY YOUR SELF THAT WILL BE THERE FOR YOU & CAN PULL YOU THRU SO OTHERS OPINIONS R JUST THAT.

So what's your point, Julie? I stated earlier I was molested as a child. How does convicting innocent men make up for that, I have to ask?

Making it an inperative that ALL accusers must be believed, even if innocent men go to prison is YOUR idea of vindication? Liars must be believed so YOU will be believed? Sorry, sister. I guess being a woman does not exclude me from being a decent human being. I would never condone an innocent person going to prison, or a liar being believed for my own personal satisfaction.

NO INNOCENT PERSON DESERVES THAT!

If sending innocent people to prison makes you happy, I sincerely pray for your soul, and for those unfortunate enough to get in your path.

Coercive persuasion does get used to wring out a confession from any number of persons who have the misfortune to come under the net of ‘necessary counselling!’

Methods learned by today’s Psychology Students can be uses both for and against the person ‘said to require counselling,’ such as the male partner of a woman who just needs to claim she is unhappy in their relationship, and wants out of it, as well as claim 2/3rd of the home and income, with the help of today’s ever increasing family law solicitors.

Your Psychologists, Solicitors, Court Prosecutors & family law judges, all have to earn a living so the more they drum up business, there will always be the unscrupulous operators willing to get a guilty plea as it means more money for them, feathering their nest, and placing a buffer between them and the poverty line that an ordinary worker battles with each day.

Thank you onlyone, I have nothing to add to what you expressed, thanks again.

To you Julie, let me tell you this, if i had a choice, i would much prefer to be in your situation that the situation I am in, facing up to 25 years jail and being innocent, I never mentioned this before, but this woman and I had a relationship for 20 years, the day of the alleged offence she come to my place to do the usual thing we have been doing for last 20 years, she clearly spelt that out, her statememt to the police starts by saying "Went to his place for a sexual encounter as i had done many times in the past" tell me Julie, why would a man rape a woman that willing drive to his place for a sexual encounter, unless this man is gone mad I see no reason whatsoever for this man to rape that woman. I never said that before because I dont know who read this forum and I am not sure if allowed to say, but now i felt it was necessary for me to write it down so that everyone knows, above all you that I am innocent, i have no idea why this woman accused me of rape, no idea at all, i have no idea why the police decided to prosecute me (1 year after she made the allegations) personally i believe it's not prosecuting a guilty person but persecuting an innocent human being simply because a woman accused him of rape. That is wrong Julie.

I don't think Julie's story had anything to do about convicting innocent men. I think that what she was trying to convey is that there is also a significant problem with accusations not being believed. Is there a problem in broadening the debate? My impression is that not only has she been raped, but she is also being judged as being a liar, that is as a false accuser. Also the person responsible has received little more than a slap on the wrist. So she has a triple whammy. I find it unbelievable that anybody who has been falsely accused would prefer her situation.
