So what if she did or didn't lie on her application? Even, if she had decided to jump on this old man (as unlikely as that seems), and at the last minute decided that she didn't want him, that would mean that she was raped. It's so despicable that a woman must be dragged through the mud and scrutinized every single time she accuses a man of rape... or any sexual violation. Is it any wonder so many rape cases are unreported?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-913154498368688053.post-47074354478894639102011-07-13T01:37:40.881-04:002011-07-13T01:37:40.881-04:00My thoughts exactly!

Gotta be some gold-digging, shady person. All this while knowing DSKs alledged sleazy reputation. What baffles me is I've heard comments from fellow Africans doubting her story because of the fib she purportedly gave on her Asylum application. Baffled because I'm sure they must know that some people do that or will say anything to live in the US or UK or whatever & the more harrowing & pitiful the story, the better chance they have at an asylum approval. So does lying once or whatever cancel out any tales of subsequent rape? A rape victim is a rape victim even if 'hooking' is her line if work. IMO, they shagged. Whether it was consensual, forced or for money (which as one story goes, it was & he refused to pay). Who'd want someone like that for a leader?JBHnoreply@blogger.com
