Black and white cases are rare. False allegations are rare. I don't think it's worth changing an important law that provides absolute protection to victims to counter a practically non existent problem.
It's quite possible to withdraw consent at any time you know.
What would have happened if this women had not been stupid enough to text him, so there was no independent proof? He would have been convicted. So we don't know how rare it is, even at 8% (metro article quoting a study) that's not rare to me.
I don't think it's wrong for a judge to decide if both parties should keep their anonymity or not.Comment

I'm against the removal of the law that says a case can't be brought against the accuser in cases of sexual assault etc. Which is what would need to be done to punish her for lying.Comment

I am not sure of the best way forward. However it does appear that women need more intimacy before sex than men do.
Maybe there should be alot more use of sex robots?Comment
