A case study of Queen's College Sexual Molestation Scandal.

The accused was exonerated by the panel because the accuser failed to show up and no evidence to support her accusations were tendered.

While going through the thread that was on the front-page, I saw a lot of comments from folks who know 'friends' that have had bad encounters with the accused teacher.

The ridiculous thing is none of them can come out with any evidence to prove it. Ask them their reasons, they would say "I want to protect my dignity" or "I don't want to be stigmatize".

These folks expect angels to come down from heaven and provide evidence. Please, if you know you can't come out with any evidence to prove that someone molested you then keep quiet.

Sexual molestation would continue to rise until you women start speaking up. Not just speaking up, but with evidence.

The fact that they don't come out to talk is a symptom of a disease. The disease being the shaming and blaming of sexual!!y abused victims.

Let us treat the disease itself, and the symptoms would go away.

I agree with you OP. Most female victim often keep quiet because of the shame and humiliation that tend to follow.

But we should know that Silence is not a good Option.
