Why do you seem to be under the impression that BPD is a good proxy for whether someone will make false accusations of sexual harassment?

- xor1 9y agoI don't understand your question. What do you mean by proxy? Are you asking if I think that someone with BPD is more likely to make false accusations of sexual harassment than someone without it (or any of the other Cluster B disorders)?
- qb45 9y agoParent claims personal experience. I'm not saying that it's right to lump people together like that and BPDs in particular don't take well talking shit about them. However, some people with mental issues in some situations really pull off lies and deception which blow most people's minds. I've been in situations where people in charge wouldn't believe some things happening right under their nose because those things were simply too bold and, well, insane. And because people are easily manipulated into forming good opinions about others and apparently don't like learning they have been wrong.

This is exactly it. People also mistake vulnerability for honesty, which is something that borderlines are experts at taking advantage of.
