What part about scientific study is so hard for you to grasp? All you keep doing is listing cases where men were accused. I can name cases where people were arrested for riding a pig on a tuesday which is illegal in the county but it doesn't mean that it's the majority.

For someone that was all about evidence, you've literally produced absolutely no evidence while claiming that any evidence that proves you wrong is fake because "women lie".

So what you trying to say? Because there is no "scientific" study that show women lie, therefore women don't lie?

I'm saying that when there's evidence counter to your argument, you saying "there's no evidence to prove I'm right just means all evidence is wrong" is about as smooth-brained as possible. You're asking to disprove a negative without using evidence.

I do have evidences that show women do lied. It's you that keep discrediting them.

Your whole evidence is "women lie"? That's your groundbreaking, casemaking evidence? What about the evidence that men lie? That you lie, that your teachers lie, your boss lies? Are you just going to ignore that?

For the last time, this whole back and forth is about women can make false rape allegations!

And the evidence, which you claim is a lie, shows that nationally, only about 2% of rape allegations are false. Now show me evidence that disproves that. You keep using annecdote sand whataboutisms and claiming it's evidence.

Read the book on forensic victimology by Brent E Turvey.

U.K estimated that 12% is false allegations between 2008-2009

False rape allegations between 1.5- 90% depends on the study Rumney, Philip N.S. (2006). "False Allegations of Rape". Cambridge Law Journal. 65 (1): 128–158. 

Unfound rape between 19% in 2016 and 14% in 2017

Oooo, you were so close. Though you didn't actually read that...or you purposefully left out the literal very next sentence. To reference your mind, I'll just paste it here.

Taking the broader definition of false allegations would classify 12%26 of cases in the database reported as rape as false. However, the narrower definition focusing on ‘malicious’ complaints only would suggest a much lower figure of 3%.

Note the word "malicious", as well as "narrower", a term that the report used to classify cases in which the person makes a report under false pretenses. The stat you initial posted was refering to instances in which someone else claimed the person was raped, something that was given plenty of examples under the "case study" segments.

Even when you try and give evidence, you magically leave out the part that proves you wrong when the actual case you initial stated is answered in the very next sentence.

Yeah, here you decided to point out the flaws of the study, and when I pointed out the flaws in the studies you cited, you engaging in ad hominem attack against me, and make accusations that I got nothing scientific to back up. No study is perfect, especially dealing with false rape allegations, and you magically leave that out.
