Unfortunately rape is often a scapegoat for embarrassing decisions by women or can be used as a tool of revenge against a person. Think of it like this..any female you work with could tell the police that you raped her and no matter what you are going to be spending some time in jail, if it happened or not. The law tries to equate women as equals to men until it comes to making decisions about sex and/or drinking alcohol. Then they are incapable of making sound decisions..according to the law.
Personal example. I got my current job when I was 27. I show up, tall, handsome, physically fit, young, amongst a bunch of people no younger than 39. I catch the eye of the resident whore, a 45 year old who still thinks she is 19 because she has terrible fake boobs. She gets wasted one night when we are both out of town for work, tries to make a pass at me. I rebuke her and shove her into her own car. She makes me promise to tell no one. Of course I am not going to say anything this chick is an old hosebeast. She leaves and I stay where I am at for a few more months. I come back to Florida and find out she was running around telling everyone about the sexual advances I made against her and how she was offended and considering filing charges against me. So needless to say some higher ups wanted to speak to me as soon as I got back. I lay out the story and them knowing her history of extreme whoring accept my factual tale as the correct version. I only imagine my fate if she had claimed rape. The old guys give me grief for not hitting it but I keep reminding them Im not near 50, or 40, and I'm still carving an emotionally scarring path through the young 20 somethings.
