There's a hell of a lot more "nuance" to this story than many here want to admit. I've given up trying to discuss this, it's pointless, everyone's mind is made up. They've all retreated to their corners, responding predictably to accusations of "rape," repeating the same unsubstantiated rumors ad nauseam.
