The system IS stacked against sexual assault victims. That's a pretty legitimate grievance.

Its not symetrical, and victims are given the short end of the stick...ill give you that. But id suggest (1) that its not stacked so much as is it tilted to be biased in favor of the accused and (2) its tilted against the victims of all crime, and is not actually specific to sexual assalt victims
And id suggest thats its purposely like that, largely driven by the reasonable doubt philosophy. Better to let 100 guilty men free than comdemn 1 falsely accused.
