Because withdrawn-consent can be used offensively. False rape accusation do happen and have resulted in many, many ruined lives - of people who legitimately and honestly thought they had consent, where the court later did not agree.
Ignorance of this fact doesn't support your argument.
- viraptor 6y agoI don't disagree false accusations happen. I'm saying that it's shitty to bring them up when a legitimate change of mind is discussed. Yet people keep popping up whatabouting this one, like someone's just waiting to accuse them of something.
- kolinko 6y agoIf you want to make a change in society, you need to consider the risks invilved. It’s important to see how prone to abuse is a new law that will be introduced.
- oilbagz 6y agoFalse Rape Accusations are a form of abuse. Rape is also a form of abuse. They are not equivalent, but can certainly lead to the same order of life-destruction magnitude in either case. Both of these things are relevant in the discussion of consensual sex, and I disagree with your attempt to elevate one position over the other. Rape is bad because it negates a persons agency over themselves and denies them their basic human rights - false rape accusations also deny a person their basic agency and human rights. Best way to avoid either case: just don't have sex, i.e. learn the value of abstinence.
