    Not even close.

    The studies on false rape allegations from a range of studies go from 1.5% all the way to 90%

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/False_accusation_of_rape

    I link to the wiki article only because it lists all of the listed studies.

    Are you aware of the existence of a large number of adult females preying on minor children in the education system?

    A woman no more needs to be the victim of sexual assault than a man.

    While I agree with your approach, and I would like to think I would do the same thing. But some people will respond to the threat of job loss and income loss. Especially if they have children to support.

    And your mother didn't say anything, just sat there and allowed herself to be demeaned?
    You say he pulled his pecker out. That doesn't sound like his first time. The guy who assaulted your mother - was it his first time? You know it wasn't.

    So you would like to encourage them to allow themselves to be victimized.

    Perhaps this is the real reason more of it doesn't get reported instead of your theory.

    So you encourage them to act like battered women - go along to get along and don't say nothing for 36 years. What a plan, I think you've solved it. Don't say anything for 36 years, don't present any evidence and convict the accused on your word alone. Master piece.

    Yes, many women DO allow just that.

    Report to the police and seek other employment. Is that not obvious?

    Anyone, male or female, who allows someone to abuse them shouldn't be confused as to why it's happening then.

    Your entire scenario reeks of painting women as weak.

    I mean who the **** is going to stand there while someone wanks off in front of them?

    Oh FFS. Really?
    The thing I would say the most to "my daughter" is why the f*ck were you still standing there while he jerked off? Then I would wonder what went wrong in my gene pool that produced such a moron as to not tell the guy to leave you alone and walk out.
    Secondly...you know how super rare something like this is? You talk like this happens on any regular basis at all. It doesn't.
    You know what happens a helluva lot more? False accusations. That happens all the time. Every single day.
    In the corporate world today you have to have you sh*t wired tight. You have to guard yourself against being alone with a female co-worker, ESPECIALLY an employee who might just get pissed off at you and decide she wants to ruin your life.

    And finally, there is the final point in your completely unrealistic story - this is the #metoo era!! She doesn't need evidence. Overwhelmingly she will at least get paid a handsome settlement and help getting a new job.

    A daughter who is not highly educated, is a single mother of 3 kids, and works long hours at say, a steel mill running the front office who happens to be working late one night trying to get some project work due ahead of time? Or perhaps any curious woman?

    Notice how only leftists are expecting women to be weak and are arguing FOR women to allow themselves to be sexually assaulted?

    No one should allow themselves to be victimized.

    Let me say it again: NO ONE should allow themselves to be victimized.

    Which to clear thinking people is a no brainer.
    But yes you are correct, only a leftist could come up with such a story painting women as weak minded, helpless child like creatures unable to think for themselves.... while claiming to be a champion for women.
    You can't make this stuff up.

    The most obvious answer is do nothing and pray in a few decades the 'accused' will become famous and the woman can cash in on it. Otherwise report it, get it on record...

    I'd say she should do any of the top 4 depending on her situation.

    Well, sometimes the consequences are worse than the act itself. If you are overpowered (or disadvantage in the environment) then the path of least resistance is the least harmful.

    Wrong.

    You never allow yourself to be a victim.

    Ever.

    It's disgusting, quite honestly.

    What you're saying is that this woman in this scenario should choose to allow herself to be sexually assaulted in order to not be "more" of a victim.

    You just endorsed Hollywood moguls using their power to rape young actresses. To go along to get along in order to keep their jobs.

    No wonder I find the leftist mind so revolting.

    Refer to my 2nd quote in my sig.

    I can only assume that you have little experience in life and that you are presumably rather young.

    Observing someone "jerking off" is not much of a "sexual assault" for an adult woman. When I was a boy, a girl in the neighbourhood (about the same age as I) pulled up her dress to show me her nude bits. Many years ago my ex-wife was riding the city bus and when it stopped for a traffic light she realized that a man in the car adjacent and "below" was pulling himself. I never asked if she observed or looked away but it would have been her choice to do either of the two. Were we "victims of sexual assault"?

    I am a war veteran, myself. I am not going to tell you everything I was obliged to do in order to survive but it was all about taking the path of less resistance and doing what was necessary to live another day. Life is that way for everyone and "left" or "right" in politics has nothing to do with it.

    You have so much to learn.

    Tell his confidant officemates and co workers secretly,
    then she should start wearing skimpy dress and work late with of course a crowd hiding nearby to watch the impending show.
    They can also bring their own camera or cellphones to record it.
    very strong corroborative evidences.

    Any time anybody accuses anyone of anything WITHOUT PROOF, then they've got NOTHING... period.

    If such a hypothetical woman in such a :couple_inlove: situation of 'abuse' wants revenge, maybe she should get a nice, BIG 'strap-on' and ambush the man who she thinks attacked her.... :buggered:

    So the exact same reality that all intellectual adults already know, is your point? Sort of makes this O.P. pointless.

    Then you'd be as wrong about that as you are about rationalizing women allowing themselves to be sexually assaulted.

    Trying to equate childhood sexual curiosity and some random guy in a car in traffic is doing whatever he was doing are poor examples, and just more rationalizing in your effort to justify allowing yourself to be a victim.

    You're not the only guy to have picked up an M16 or had RPG's lobbed at you. Not sure what that has to do with sexual assault, regardless.

    There is no valid reason any woman, or man, should accept being a victim of sexual assault or anything else.

    The only thing worse than sexual assault are the people trying to normalize it.

    Your argument is both pathetic and disgusting.

    And the only thing worse than someone who isn't listening is one who makes absurd conclusions (like this quote from you above) and has no sympathy for people (women or otherwise) who find themselves in precarious circumstances.
    I would say that your is completely non-existent. You have much to learn.
