More false rape accusation stats:
According to the EEOC, there were 7,514 charges of sex-based harassment filed in 2019. That means that between 150 and 750 people were falsely accused in 2019. That’s between 150 and 750 people who could have had their careers ended, their reputations destroyed, and years of hard work come to a grinding halt when they did not deserve it if the presumption is that they are guilty without a fair process

60% of male managers report feeling “too nervous” about being accused of harassment to interact with women in “common workplace” activities such as mentoring, socializing and one-on-one meetings.

Men are afraid of getting falsely accused of raping someone, but the media still twists this to make it seem like they would definitely rape if given the chance.
I might update this list as time goes on.
