Here's a Carol Tavris talk from last month's TAM 2014.
Who's Lying, Who's Self-Justifying? Origins of the He Said/She Said Gap in Sexual Allegations
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9SpVVsOUsLo
The Woody Allen sex scandal of 2013 triggered a national conversation on who to believe, with people lining up on each side as if they knew what really happened. Based on recent research on how people navigate the often tricky waters of sexual negotiation, Dr. Carol Tavris shows that it is entirely possible in some sexual assault cases neither side is lying, but instead both sides feel justified in their positions. This talk was considered one of the best ever given at The Amazing Meeting.

Ok, so how can two different account of whether or not a crime occurred both be right. Can a mugger and a muggging victim both be right when they say the exact opposite thing happened?
I dont care how people feel about what happened. In cases like sexual assault I care about what objectively happened.
