This is why I don't like it when guys equate the political Left with pussy-ass, feminist beliefs. One doesn't necessarily equal the other. There's an old-school, manly Left, of which guys like me might consider themselves members, and of which guys like this cat are distinguished members.
This is the kind of guy you want taking up the false rape-allegation cause, not that idiot Todd Akin.

George Galloway: Julian Assange rape allegations nothing but 'bad sexual etiquette'
Speaking on his video podcast, Respect MP George Galloway says the rape allegations made against WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange amount to no more than "bad manners".
During the thirty-minute podcast, the Bradford West MP addressed the allegations of rape, sexual molestation and unlawful coercion made by two women - which include having sex with one of them while she was asleep - against the WilkiLeaks founder. Mr Assange denies the allegations.
"Even taken at its worst, if the allegations made by these two women were true, 100 percent true, and even if a camera in the room captured them, they don't constitute rape," Mr Galloway said. "At least not rape as anyone with any sense can possibly recognise it. And somebody has to say this."
The Respect MP then suggested one of the women had claimed she invited Mr Assange back to her flat, had consensual sex with him and then "woke up to him having sex with her again - something which can happen, you know".
"Some people believe that when you go to bed with somebody, take off your clothes, and have sex with them and then fall asleep, you're already in the sex game with them," he continued.
"It might be really bad manners not to have tapped her on the shoulder and said, 'do you mind if I do it again?'
"It might be really sordid and bad sexual etiquette, but whatever else it is, it is not rape or you bankrupt the term rape of all meaning."
