Ugh. I get too worked up about this issue to even read half of these posts. As long as incidents like this are still happening in the world, http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/calgar...n-boy-crm.html, the men's rights groups can shove it as far as I'm concerned. 8 years old. EIGHT YEARS OLD.

ETA: Ok, maybe they don't need to shove it. But I think more important issues than the "cry rape" are at hand. False accusations are a big deal, yes. But what is happening in our society to lead to these crimes against women and children? What is happening to boys and men in our society to lead 16-year olds from normal families in Calgary to be raping 8 year olds in a park? To men spiking drinks at clubs with drugs? To men date-raping women? I just don't understand.

False accusations are important and shouldn't be overlooked. But there are far, FAR, more urgent issues to be addressed regarding sexual assualts IMO.
