You have no clue a) how uncommon that really is, and b) how much shit 
women go through, even when it is legitimate, which might result in them 
"wanting" to recant it, even if it did happen. So.. Don't go there. I 
refer you to the same thing I posted in the other comment:

This is why even many of those "recanted" cases are not really 
recanting, and at least one of the reasons why so many rapes never get 
reported at all, even when they *are* real.

Anyone else want to trot out one of the endless excuses for why its 
either, "not the guys fault, or didn't happen, or isn't really that big 
of a problem"? The "false rape" thing is vastly rarer than people claim, 
and is just one more reason used by MRAs (Men's Right Association) types 
to claim that "no" rape is ever rape, among other things. What sort of 
people do you think "intentionally" spread it, right along with the ones 
that do it unintentionally, because, despite having no statistics to 
back up the claim, "Everyone knows it happens a lot."
