Exactly, both you and Bayaramom are right. Drunk parties of youngster can be quite wild and many do not even remember coming back.Posted by greybeard (here)
I was sexually assaulted by an older woman when I was fifteen.
She was seventeen
I did not invite it I did not expect it.
Ok that was my experience and I did not complain later..
It was a "fondle"--grope in other words.
She laughed at my discomfort, embarrassment.
Young hormones --hers --accepted.
So here we have a woman's stated experience--years after the event.
Who knows the truth of what happened without full context all these years ago.
Neither account--his or hers, will bring will bring the truth of what happened without full understanding of the context in which this is claimed to have happened.

Worth a listen.
I did check on my daughter so much when she was a teenager.
And as you say Greybeard, on both sides (both sexes) inexperience and clumsiness are part of the learning curve. As long as it is not forcible rape, which is the definition of rape: forcible.
And, there is a chance she has been on the hired for trouble side (to me, tears alone are not enough for proof, real sociopaths are very good imitators, who knows, but if there was proofs or if she had talked about it then, maybe, which is not the case here).
You will rarely see me taking the men's side on those aspects, because women are raped much more than men, but here, it is a case of confusion and too many "maybe", and it is thoroughly damaging for the men, if it were not true. It is also politically motivated - this woman would never have come forward if it were not for a politically based election.
Anyhow, this is not my country, i have not much place to say anything, but.... I have to deal here, as a citizen, with policies implemented by kid - theater teacher - disguise enjoyer - Trudeau, it is quite enough.
