| 52. It is clear that the French still believe in droit de seigneur |

And that the cultural bias in France makes it very difficult for a woman to prosecute a charge of rape against such a man.
They are in a defensive ring about this issue. Some of them are embarrassed, and they seem to have pissed off some female politicians. But they do not take such attacks seriously, and a great deal of the speculation about a conspiracy theory really turns around the question "Why did the police arrest DSK at all?"
When you strip away all the rhetoric it is an ugly situation.
