I wasn't looking for ironclad proof that would hold up in court.
I don't mind mingling with rumors. I'm on a gossip site. But it's all too easy throw around some rumors as mudflinging. When it comes to some more serious claims I'd just like to know what is being claimed. A 17 year old having willing sex with an 18 year old is different than a 17 having willing sex with a 28 year old and it's also diferrent than being forced at knife or gunpoint. I just wanted to get some specifics on the basic claim. If someone can't even communicate the basic claim, then either they didn't think to ask themselves when they heard it, meaning they know jack shit about it, or they didn't care about the details, meaning it's about what damage the rumor might wreak for reputations.
And that kind of dishonest stuff is even gayer than sucking dildo's for streams (though admittedly, less shameful as nobody sees who did it).
