    Sky posted his denial on their Instagram and the plethora of guys ready to leap at his defence and abuse the woman is embarrassing. They don’t even know if he did or not.

    I know he's innocent until proven guilty and there has been many cases of false accusations of rape but the way she is being abuse online is sad....it validates the reason many woman don't report sexual assault or delay reporting it.

    Unfortunately this seems to be quite common.

    Forgive me if this comes across a bit blasé or insensitive, but, it seems that sympathy is only ever shown in rape ‘attacks’ when women don’t know the rapist, i.e. attacked in a park at night etc. Or if it is a gang thing or what not.

    When a woman goes to a man’s bedroom/hotel room, engages in any sort of intimacy, kissing, lying on the bed with them, then a large proportion of male’s reaction is “she wanted it” “she could have left” “she regretted it so is crying rape”

    It’s not right, but it’s an attitude that I doubt will ever change.

    Something like this should never be made public, certainly at this stage.

    Both should have anonymity until they walk into the trial, not fair and a just trial is jeopardised under such public scrutiny in this social media driven era.

    I’d say attitudes are already changing.

    Women, like men, have the right to change their mind, even if they’ve decided to go to a hotel room and kiss someone.

    That's very true Marty and it isn't right!

    There's a massive difference in the way victims/ alleged victims are treating depending on the situation.

    Of course they do.

    Hope you didn’t think I was suggesting otherwise?

    Nah of course not.

    It was more of an extension to your point because I agree with you that a lot of men think like that, which isn’t right, but I do think that attitude has been changing in recent years.

    I’ve seen an analogy explaining consent brilliantly. Imagine you’re quite happilly * a burd then she sticks a footlong * up your * without talking it through prior, or indeed you wanting a footlong * up the chocolate starfish, now just because you’ve had sexual contact with her before or during the act, have you not still been violated?

    Regarding rape and consent, this video is actually used to help depict 'consent' to law students. Simplistic, but sometimes that's what's needed.

    Whats more important to a woman, length or width?.

    It turns out the answer's consent .

    Whoever is in charge of Juventus' twitter account has not handled this well.

    Pathetic really.
