You seem to be fixated on a statistic that I provided that I acquired through a rape victim support organization (https://rainn.org/get-information/statis...lt-victims), while you continually quote me things from websites that are pure opinion manifestos. You say 22 years ago people there were men who were acquitted through DNA when testing became ubiquitous? Great! Then to rephrase my question, how many men are being imprisoned without DNA evidence - today? When my husband was accused, they removed the couch cushions from his house to test for DNA - which of course proved he had had sex with his girlfriend. Still no prison. (~1997)
I'm not trying to be cold or indifferent about false imprisonment, but it happens across the board for all crimes, not just rape. You appear demonizing women so especially for something that is perpetuated by all sorts of people for all sorts of reasons, not just sexual power trips or whatever.
Rainn.org also says 1 in 33 men experience rape or sexual assault - which isn't a number to scoff at, either.
The websites you have linked have their own issues with statistics, but I won't draw them out here because I don't think that's the issue.
You asked rhetorically, "How many people care about men who are the recipient of all kinds of violence (from other men AND women), rape, false rape accusations, homicide, male genital mutilation, conscription, homelessness and suicide? The vast majority of suicides are committed by men. I refuse to let their voices drown out in feminist hysteria.". I took that in context that you believe that nobody, or very few, care.

Quote:Likewise it is not strawman to point out the suffering of men in the face of dubious feminist talking points. Never once did I say that you do not care about men.
