Support for violence to resist feminism was highest among adolescent boys (28%), followed closely by adolescent girls (21%).

Perhaps most alarming: roughly 40% of boys aged 13 to 17 agreed that women lie about domestic and sexual violence.

These results raise crucial questions going forward. We don’t yet know how these views have changed over time, whether they are on the rise and what the links are between violent extremism and the negative treatment of women.

    Tbf that’s lies that make it to court, I’ve been lied about and had friends also be lied about, but the girls (we were all kids at the time) didn’t take it to court, they just tried to assassinate our character and get us shunned for life by everyone we knew without involving the system that would make them prove anything.

    Thankfully in my case I had witnesses and in my buddy’s he had an alibi, but still, it’s a pretty rude thing to lie about. But I think most of the lies shake out like that, they usually don’t get reported to the actual authorities, just circulated like a rumor.
