[QUOTE="CaptainS, post: 978173, member: 9255"] Except that's not what happened. No one would have a problem with condemning a man who outright rapes a girl or walks up to a passed out woman and starts groping her. If you want to compare it to a gay dude, you have to stick to an equivalent scenario: A supposedly straight man goes to a gay party. He was dancing with and flirting with several men there. Eventually decides to leave with one of the guys to go to his room to have gay sex. Before doing so, he calls his girlfriend to tell her not to wait up. They start kissing and groping each other in the parking lot, then he passes out and the other dude continues for a few seconds until he realizes what's happened. At that moment some white knights show up and call the police. He's taken to the hospital and they're asking him what happened. At this point he's stuck, he's either outed as gay or he accuses the other man of rape. He chooses the latter. In that situation, don't you think people would at least be asking why he went to a gay party? Why he was flirting with gay men? Why he was leaving with one? He wouldn't be defended, he'd get banned on his first post. Even this isn't equivalent because, in the girl's case, her friends and sister were there and would have stopped her if she was too drunk or being forced to leave with BT. [/QUOTE]
