There are suggestions that Dominique Strauss-Kahn’s defense will argue that any sex with his accuser was consensual.

We know about him and his background. What about her. Despite feminist propaganda, women do lie about sex. How many pages for how many months did the NYT waste on Tawana Brawley's false allegations? Recall the terrible consequences of the rape allegations by 2 young women against the Scottsboro boys. And the ruined reputations because of false allegations against Duke lacrosse players. And the woman who accused the nephew of Ted Kennedy.
Men AND women lie about sex. We should know the background of both to better know what may have happened. Rape shield laws only encourage false accusations to ruin innocent men. Equal justice under law means we should know the reputations of both figures involved in the dispute.
It is possible that the real victim is Strauss-Kahn.

The case against Dominique Strauss-Kahn is on the verge of collapse as investigators have uncovered major holes in the credibility of the housekeeper who charged that he attacked her in a Manhattan hotel in May.

When most readers were denouncing DSK as a rapist, I commented on the original story that women do lie about sex - the accusers of the Scottsboro boys, of Kennedy Smith, of the Duke athletes. Nina Totenberg had led the charge against Justice Clarence Thomas with her NPR commentaries that "women do not make up stories." The Scottsboro boys were wrongly convicted. Kennedy Smith smeared by a liar. Justice Thomas was denied personal justice by a lynch-like media. And have the leaders of Duke U. ever really apologized to its athletes, after the administrators joined the mob's hate-mongering smear campaign? Men and women lie. It is the duty of American justice now to end rape-shield laws so as better to ascertain the truth. Such laws only encourage women to make false charges. When most were calling DSK a monster, I wrote in the NYT comments that he might be the victim in this case. Look at what he has already lost! And she may have made it all up!
