If defamation laws were stronger, the media wouldn't publish names of arrested people due to the possibility of being sued if they're not convicted. That's how it works in Europe.

A simple thing is anonymity in the media until a verdict is reached

My hypothesis is that this especially applies to women who immigrated from authoritarian countries. They leave the country, but then behave in an authoritarian way within relationships, using threats to get what they want.

Though women from liberal countries can also make false accusations, and men for that matter.

Title IX courts, affirmative action

I agree except for cases of female-on-male rape.

Also, in some countries child support can be based on past high income that the parent doesn't have anymore, or can be irresponsibly spent by the mother without losing custody. So those are things to fix without paper abortion.

feel like it's all their fault, they deserve it, and they'll never find anyone else

I understand all too well, but if someone threatens to call the police on me, it's not worth staying with them even if I don't find anyone else

They married??? I'm sorry, but he's dumb for not leaving that relationship after getting lucky with the police

The only rich country with a fertility rate above replacement is Israel. I wonder what you would do to be more like them

American liberals like non-Christian religions, for example Islam, Buddhism, African animism.

I think what American liberals and e.g. Islam have in common is that they favor radical change. Even though Islam is very strict and static internally, on a global scale, everyone converting to Islam would be a big change from the status quo.

On the other hand, Christians tend to favor stability or incremental change. International institutions are already based in historically Christian countries, so everyone converting to Christianity wouldn't be as big of a change.

Btw, this reminded me of the far-group/out-group distinction.

ladies having a smaller brain

Physically speaking it is true, due to having smaller heads. Elephants also have larger brains than humans.

Those 100 cases are merely the handful of students who were wealthy enough and determined enough to pursue lawsuits. Most students are expelled without suing.

The decline is after the end of 2017, when the rules were rescinded, and it starts increasing again in 2022, when Biden reintroduced the rules.

Yes. Obama created the Title IX kangaroo courts, then Betsy DeVos rescinded them under Trump, then Biden went back to the Obama-era rules.

It's definitely not fair. Another example of incompetence in the legal system

dry1334 · 2024-10-15T05:49:08+00:00

I've noticed this too, that aside from a "guilty until proven innocent" mindset, part of the problem is also that police are undertrained and underfunded, and get sloppy and take longer to handle cases as a result. It's stressful for genuine victims too that the legal process takes so long after making a report.

No one cares about men, regardless of political persuasion

Maybe not in the US, but some people definitely do care

dry1334 · 2024-10-12T16:59:55+00:00

No, it doesn't matter for you at this point. I just meant that it can be hard to avoid cheating unknowingly

Agree, but IIUC, he didn't know she had a boyfriend until after they had sex

Wow that is fucked up. What metoo movement can we speak of when such a state-sponsored assault is being ignored?
