Interesting. Although the three friends I had who made false accusations were all specific tho only one of them was malicious. (She is not my friend any more)
But, mostly no. The ideologues I have spoke to personally are telling me, not the police so no investigation happens. I assume they are telling the truth but get more dubious if they then say that having sex while drinking is rape as the most popular campus survey says.

Link to said survey? And having sex while drinking isn't rape; having sex with a drunk person is higher risk, though, because it *could* be rape (consent gets more fuzzy with decreasing capacity); and there's definitely a line of drunkenness beyond which it absolutely *is* rape.
-
Not sure how that relates to my comment (it doesn't argue with my claim there *is* a line, just argues that the CDC measures it poorly), but it's an interesting skim, and I'll have to go back to it. But it does seem to again undermine your view of how seriously rape is taken...
-
I wasn't raising it in relation to your claim. I was raising it in relation to people who define 'rape' the way the CDC does. What? How?
-
If you mean that it diminishes genuine rape victims by including people who have had sex whilst drinking and have been talked into sex, then I agree with you that this is not a serious approach. It is evidence of an abhorrence of rape tho.
-
Fair enough. And it undermines your claim by showing how little respect we appear to have for rape of men - not something we'd expect to see in a rape-abhorring culture.
-
Except that I said we have little respect for rape of men.
-
Yes, you somewhat modified your initial claim (https://twitter.com/HPluckrose/status/983865201433939968 …) to accept that rape of men is underappreciated... but not, as far as I can tell, to stating that rape in general is treated less seriously than other crimes (with robbery being my comparison).
