"It is the falsely accused that suffer and that will be men."  No argument.  My argument was with the use of the phrase, "It's only..."

Nonsense.  A woman--for whatever reason--makes false statements to the police.  The file goes forward.  A man is charged.  A court date is set.  Woman thinks: what have I done?  Do I have to go through with this?  Can I do it?  Should I do it?  

Statistics reveal that many women abandon the case before the court date.  There are a lot of reasons for that decision--the above example might be one of them.
