Women are far more likely to have a same-sex best friend (a ‘best friend forever’), in addition to a romantic partner, but heir friendships are als more susceptible to "catastrophic breakdown". https://t.co/zlYXBKYXk9 pic.twitter.com/bzvFjmES49

Lynchjustiz und Falschbeschuldigungen
Judgybitch weist auf die Lynchjustiz gegenüber Schwarzen nach Anzeigen von weißen Frauen hin:
Historically, there is a moment that should soberly remind us when you give women the power to kill, on a word, lots of women will take that power. Women will lie. And men will die.
My Ovary Acting article at Dangerous.com ….
From 1882 – 1968, an estimated 4 743 men were lynched in the United States, often after an accusation of rape, prompting the NAACP to claim ‘[w]hites started lynching because they felt it was necessary to protect white women’.
We now know that many of these women lied, and men died.
Emmet Till was only 14 years old when he was beaten to death for the crime of ‘whistling at a white woman’. Many years later, Carolyn Brant admitted that she lied, to protect her husband. They went on to profit financially from the boy’s death. Till was hardly alone. A mob of 1500 beat and hung three Black circus workers in Duluth, after a white woman made an apparently false accusation of rape.
Pulitzer Prize winning journalist Gilbert King chronicles the lives and deaths of the black men falsely accused of sexual assault in his book, Devil in the Grove.
The history of lynching in the United States is inextricably interwoven with the history of women lying about sexual assault. Last month Teen Vogue writer Emily Lindin cheerfully resigned herself to innocent men being made to suffer if women lie, as the price of ending “patriarchy”, seemingly incapable of understanding that shewould not be the one paying the price. This is the same thought process of the women who lied to force the Southern trees to bear their strange fruit.
Nun kann man die Lynchjustiz damals, bei der die Schwarzen Männer direkt aufgehängt oder anderweitig getötet worden sind in der Intensität der Folgen sicherlich nicht damit vergleichen, was heute passiert.
Dennoch kann es gut sein, sich bewusst zu machen, dass eine Mobmentalität, bei der die Anschuldigung den Schuldspruch ersetzt, leicht entstehen kann. Heute mag eben „nur“ die Karriere getötet werden und der jeweilige Mensch in seinem Umfeld ruiniert werden.
Und es hilft vielleicht auch, sich bewußt zu machen, dass Frauen die Beschuldigungen erhoben haben in der Kenntnis, dass der Mann gelyncht werden würde, obwohl er nichts gemacht hat um nicht zu unkritisch an Vorwürfe heran zu gehen.
