National Review Writer: Liberals 'Brainwash' Women To Cry 'Rape'

CAITLIN MACNEAL – MAY 21, 2014, 11:44 AM EDT

Upon the recent efforts by the federal government and universities to address college sexual assault rates, a National Review Online contributor wrote on Monday that the uptick in sexual assault reports is actually just women "crying rape."

"First, the pendulum shift began with feminists pushing the notion that women claiming they were raped should always be believed and never questioned," NRO contributor A.J. Delgado wrote. "Then followed the loosened standards for arrests in rape accusations."

Delgado essentially blames "liberals" for loosening the definition of sexual assault to include "any sexual activity in which the woman is not sober."

"Admittedly, I am no scientist, but I am fairly certain that a statistically significant amount of sex — including very enjoyable sex — happens under the influence of alcohol. But by the liberal definition of my generation, I have been raped. Multiple times," she wrote.
