Filing a false claim is not obstruction of justice unless there is a related prosecution going on. For example, if X is on trial for a murder that took place, the statement "X was busy raping me that day" would be obstruction of justice.
Do you think lying to the police about whether sex was consentual should be punished?

I'm aware that obstruction of justice requires that you be asked a direct question by someone investigating a crime.
I believe that you should be permitted to file a false claim, because it is extremely difficult to establish whether or not you knowingly did so; especially as regards something as emotionally traumatizing as rape. Further I cannot see any scenario in which making such a thing a crime does anything other than increase the rate at which rape goes unreported, or expands the actual work load on the justice system. As it is, any false claim of rape that makes it to trial will almost certainly see the claimant commit an existing crime in the course of pursuing the case.
Further, if you criminalize making a false claim, anyone who makes such a claim has a clear incentive to continue the lie, extending any prosecution of the alleged crime.

yeah but what these guys do and the motivations for them to do so are not, or shouldnt be commonplace:
I quote: "The masculine attitude and lack of care these women put into their style or hair irritated me, so I made it a point to **** them and never call again.”
this is way beyond "ill put on some nice clothes and cologne to get a date" and more in the realm of misogyny

Men use violence to abuse more and inflict abuse more often, women more likely to be arrested for it: http://insciences.org/article.php?article_id=6628 One out of every three homeless women is homeless as a result of leaving an abusive relationship; in fact, there's a surprisingly likely chance that they'll be evicted because of a zero tolerance policy towards crime (even though they're the victim, not the perpetrator). http://www.aclu.org/FilesPDFs/housing%20paper.4.pdf Girls are more likely to be recipients of child abuse: http://www.medicinenet.com/child_abuse/page2.htm

It's definitely more likely to lead to an arrest on-the-spot.
Look at it this way. Man hits Woman, Woman stabs man in retaliation/self-defence, Police arrive. Which of the two is going to be viewed with more alarm from the officers?

*shrug* Either way, the article itself said that female victims of abuse most often use weapons to protect themselves from a violent partner.

Unfortunately in many cases, wielding a knife is not going to be viewed kindly by any officers on the scene.
EDIT: I'm not condemning women using weapons to defend themselves, just saying this is a possible explanation for the arrests.

Pick-up "artists" are just a bunch of shallow douches, calling them a hate group is given them too much credit than they're worth.
And Mens Rights groups...that depends on if they're fighting for equality (Fathers 4 Justice) for fighting against any and all forms of feminism.

Given this knowledge - that a false allegation of rape would almost never meet the standard for obstruction of justice - you still think that obstruction of justice provides a sufficient punishment for the false allegation?
Do you think that the real victim - the accused who had their life virtually destroyed by the false accusation - deserves some sort of state-administered justice, if only as a deterrent?

@biccat
umm... more abusive how? by sheer number or the severity of the act?
because if youre going by sheer numbers here, you have to consider that fact that being an abused male carries a pretty heavy social and cultural stigma...especially outside the US so chances are, reports of abuse on men by women are under reported

humor me please. How do we know who abuses who more?
We agreed that instances of abuse are under reported by both genders so I'm curious as to how one can definitively say that any gender abuses another more.
The studies shown so far seem to be "western" centric as well.

Do you think lying to the police about whether sex was consentual should be punished?
While I'm all for the idea of making our laws as clear and unambiguous as possible, there are simply some issues that will really require prosecutorial discretion. The intent is the real thing here, and it's in situations like a date rape, intent is very hard to discern. Is it unreasonable to accept that it's possible for two people to have two very internally valid but differing recollections of events that occurred, especially if one or both were intoxicated? If so, is there a remedy better than prosecutorial discretion?
Are false rape allegations so prevalent and unchecked that we legitimately need new legislation to address this, when there are already ample civil and criminal statutes to cover these issues? Perhaps it would be better to exercise some of these already on the books laws, instead. I have no idea how Crystal Mangum escaped prosecution, for example, but I'm pretty sure that not only should she have, that there were already sufficient mechanisms in place to make that happen if the political will existed for it.

Information from social workers, psychologists, and so on also matters, as does information gathered from surveys, as well as from information garnered from civil courts (such as restraining orders and such).
For example, the National Crime Victimization Survey indicated that younger women (especially those with little prior contact with the criminal justice system) are less likely to call police after, for example. That same report indicated that "behavior that is likely to violate most state and federal criminal and civil (protective order) statutes is typically perpetrated by males."
