I consider the devastation wrought by a false allegation or accusation of rape or sexual assault to be far worse for a man than a genuine rape is for a woman because she is treated with sympathy and compassion, even when shown to be a malicious fraudster (Should that be fraudstress?) and he continues to be villified and despised even when proven to be innocent. She is given every help to recover and move on while he is left to deal with the fragments of a shattered life and never recovers.
False rape accusers should serve a prison sentence of twice that given to her victim and then be confined for the rest of her natural life in a secure psychiatric institution. If that seems extreme, consider that a false accusation of rape is, in my view, worse for men than being accused of murder, and only slightly less serious than an accusation of child molestation.
Addendum: I wrote this comment before watching the video and I'm delighted that you've covered the points I made in my first paragraph.
Agree Ian that most folks simply don't have a clue about the devastation caused by a false accusation. I have worked with a number of men over the years who were falsely accused and it taught me the depth of pain and isolation experienced and you are correct that men are unlikely to get much compassion. Sometimes a falsely accused man won't even get compassion from his own family and friends.
A thought occurs to me: many so-called 'rapes', that are now legally recognised as such, are actually what was once simply written off as 'bad sex' or a drunken encounter or what is sometimes described as 'regret sex' where the woman enjoyed it at the time but later came to regret it. Those women were once told not to be so stupid next time, now a man's life is destroyed because his partner for the event is disappointed and wishes she hadn't. Such incidents are in no sense anywhere near as serious as what most people think of as a real rape and cannot be equated to the pain of a falsely accused man.
Thank you Tom! Bettina Arnt, Janet Fiamengo and others have been fighting this travesty for many years. The Obama administration pressed colleges to take more action against men accused of rape. They threatened to withhold federal funds if colleges didn't comply. The Trump administration removed this threat of sanctions. As soon as the Biden admin came to power, they reinstated these threats of sanctions. The issue is the lack of due process. It's something we all expect as US citizens. The colleges create kangaroo courts to deal with rape accusations.The radical feminist wield a lot of power and influence in the Democratic Party. Sadly, it's purely ideological. They care nothing about the young men whose lives are destroyed.

Good points. The Biden regime seems to be an extension from the Obama presidency and neither one is friendly to boys and men.
