One of my best guy friends broke up with his college sweetheart. We went to a rather conservative university.
The ex claimed rape in retribution.
He was banned from campus. He was banned from the church.
They went to court. His lawyer (a woman) was able to prove that the ex girlfriend instigated the emotional abuse.
I was called in as a witness. She was crazy in my eyes for sure. She made verbal threats before they broke up.
Thank goodness his family had the money to afford a good lawyer.
To this day he can’t return to the campus church.
I realize this is a very sensational topic. I do NOT take away from actual rape cases and fuck those guys.
Anyway… that shit scares us. Extreme case sure. But not impossible and I’ve seen it a hand full of times. Some women know they can weaponize law in their hands. Having seen it, I definitely am wary in all interactions. Which is probably good right. Again fuck those guys who legitimately are assholes and rapists.
