Um, actually, I was molested by my uncle (full intercourse, I don't use the term rape because it wasn't violent, but technically it was rape). I understand the psychological effects rather well. I am suicidal most of the time and just try to push it to back of my brain. He was never charged, even though most of my family found out about it (years after the fact).
By that time, there was no physical evidence, and it was well known that I disliked him (although no one had known why). So there was no evidence and I had motive to lie. (In fact I still think much of my extended family don't believe me). It would have been impossible to convince a jury beyond a reasonable doubt. So I did my best to move on.
I also had another friend falsely accused of rape. I saw my friend (who had a drinking problem) hit on him and be sexually aggressive (I'd seen her behave this way many times, and didn't think much of it). But this time, after she sobered up she had a problem with the fact he was black.
I don't know if Kavanaugh tried to rape her. She had motive to lie, and there was zero evidence (there were other reasons to not confirm Kavanaugh, but the rape accusation was not it).
Also stop trying to connect issues that aren't. If you look at other threads, you'll see that I regularly say that as long as there are privacy stalls, I have no issue with people using the restroom of there choice (it does become a more complicated issue when we talk about locker rooms where genitals might be exposed. But even then my concern is not about possible rape, but standards of modesty and whether or not girls have a reasonable expectation of being shielded from exposure to a point where ntact male p**is).
