Blindly believing women when they make accusations of abuse isn't the way to battle sexism.

It's giving in to it.
Always believing that women are the victims is perpetuating the stereotype that they are frail, fragile, childlike creatures in need of our protection.

Most of the entire MeToo movement was overblown nonsense. Hope fully the Amber Heard thing is a turning point, but I'm not counting on it.

@TheGreatLeveler I mean, don't get me wrong. I'm glad people are listening to accusations by women against powerful men, but we can't just blindly believe them. Some of them are telling the truth, and some of them are not.

@LordShadowfire And accusations are usually made without proof, on social media, doing irreputable damage based on hearsay. It's character assasination, especially for the people accused who have a high profile in the media.
