        These women who are coming out now to accuse someone of something so trivial is going to make it a “boy that cried wolf” scenario for future actual victims of assault.

        That's like eating a free steak dinner then complaining afterwards it wasn't at your favorite restaurant.

        So now I have to worry about a girlfriend that I dumped being regretful or vindictive years or days later for me to be then labeled a "predator "?? This is getting ridiculous...

        These types of stories are not helping women. Buyer’s regret doesn’t make a person a victim. Telling this kind of story for attention and headlines is dangerous and unfair to everyone.

        Consenting adults aren't helpless victims. If you have integrity, you can't be seduced. Forced? - that's rape, call police immediately.

        You're a victim because you're easily seduced by men in powerful positions? Wut.

        Yes. You were 'the other woman'. I'm no Matt Lauer fan either but this one doesn't make sense.

        So now it was consensual? This is what’s making me mad in all of this....there are real victims suffering and we have people giving false allegations?
