The problem with framing it where you give the accused the benefit of the doubt all the time is that you end up with a society that consistently and structurally doesn't take abuse claims seriously, and isn't able to effectively deal with abuse. And we know this because it's literally the world that we live in.

That doesn't mean that you have to take every accusation at face value, either. But we should take them seriously, and not necessarily give the accused the same presumption of innocence in our private personal judgments and actions that applies in criminal trials.

You should be at least as concerned with letting people slide for abuse as you are with people being unfairly accused of abuse.

This. This is a good comment.

This. And, as it stands, we currently DON'T take abuse claims about women seriously. I have watched my friend's sister-in-law emotionally manipulate and abuse her husband and young son because no one believes that a woman and a mother would do such a thing. But if she were a man? They would be all over her in a flash.
