Member of our columnist team Wendy McElroy writes up another well-researched piece this week, this time on false rape accusations. This is a favorite subject-type of hers and we’re the better for her research and columns about it.
Here’s a snippet (the column is in the newly relocated Columnist section):
On April 8, the president of the Brevard, Fla., chapter of the National Organization for Women was charged by the Florida state attorney’s office with filing a false rape report and making a false official statement.
She could be imprisoned for one year on each count and forced to pay for the police investigation she incurred. The case has far-reaching implications for gender politics and for women who report sexual assault in the future.
[…] As of Monday, searching its website for the term “Nall” returns no results. After all, NOW has argued that women do not lie about rape. Catharine MacKinnon—a founding mother of the gender feminism that NOW promotes—stated in her book, Feminism Unmodified, “The reason feminism uncovered this reality [of male oppression], its methodological secret, is that feminism is built on believing women’s accounts of sexual use and abuse by men.”
