Every single newspaper that reported that Jane Doe “changed her story” should be rushing to publish retractions right now. This case should be a lesson in taking a DA’s victim-blaming statements at face value. Victims do not report to the police because they thought nothing happened to them.

if you are a dude and want to be an ally the answer is not in posting or spending money (though do that, sure) but in realizing how your presence can change the atmosphere of a room and that no one has any reason to know or care that you are “one of the good ones” and do what you can about that.
