[QUOTE="Emelee, post: 307637, member: 73"] I think it's sad that so many immidiately start to discredit the women and ask why it took so long etc. Who wants to come forward knowing that so many will call you a liar in media and online? Especially when it comes to such deeply personal and sensitive issues and when you sometimes think you had it coming or was at fault somehow. Why do battered people not leave the relationship? Or even tell anyone? Why do they feel ashamed and try to hide the wounds? It's much too easy to judge it as black or white. For me, it took 30 years to tell my parents what happened when I was 7. And I think I am a strong independant woman, but I still wonder if I did something to let it happen even though logic tells me a 13 year old had no business forcing himself on a 7 year old. I can only talk about this anonymously with people who don't know me irl. I'm still too embarrassed and ashamed to discuss it with people I know. I can't say if Noth is guilty or not, I wasn't there. But I won't immidiately go to a discrediting of women in general stand-point like way too many people do. I don't even think people should be open with what they believe in specific sexual offence cases. Just read what's been stated and not say out loud if you thinks it's true or not. We don't know the accused or the accusers, never met them. So unless there is strong evidence, just don't comment on which side you're on. That is what really spoils reputations, when you get thousands of people against you, orally or in writing.
