I don't think you can blame people for being skeptical until the evidence came out to prove it happened. The skepticism was not because people don't take rape seriously, but because it is hard to believe that a doctor would not only be thinking of his patients in a sexual way, not only decide it was worth risking his career by doing something sexual with a patient, not only decide to ejaculate on a patient right in the middle of a treatment room, but do it without her consent and misusing medication to do it. It's a bizarre scenario that I would find really far fetched in a piece of fiction. Welp, here we see truth really is stranger than fiction.
Without evidence, these kinds of cases are always hard because you do need to balance compassion for people who have genuinely been assaulted vs. not destroying the life of an innocent man. As a woman, I certainly am vehemently opposed to rape, but sometimes people do make false accusations for various reasons.
Nope, not buying it. I notice this anytime a woman accuses a man of any misconduct. There is a pervasive assumption that the woman is lying while the man is innocent and victim of a diabolical plan to "take him down." The very least is to keep a neutral stance in these situations/accusations/alleged crimes and not to take either side until evidence is examined and proof is brought forth.
You are acting like bizarre things dont happen all the time. "Truth is stranger than fiction." And I dont understand how a doctor doing what he did seems so utterly far fetched to you. If it were, there would be no need for chaperones in medical practice.
