Quoted: An incident in her youth. From an interview on Huffpost. ""Technically speaking, however you want to look at it, this was all my doing and I take full responsibility. You can’t f**k about with people, especially people who wear ‘I Heart Rape’ and ‘On Your Knees’ badges ... those motorcycle gangs, that’s what they do. You can’t paint yourself into a corner and then say, whose brush is this? You have to take responsibility. I mean, I was naive. If I’m walking around in my underwear and I’m drunk? Who else’s fault can it be? ... If I’m walking around and I’m very modestly dressed and I’m keeping to myself and someone attacks me, then I’d say that’s his fault. But if I’m being very lairy and putting it about and being provocative, then you are enticing someone who’s already unhinged -- don’t do that. Come on! That’s just common sense. You know, if you don’t want to entice a rapist, don’t wear high heels so you can’t run from him. "If you’re wearing something that says ‘Come and f**k me,’ you’d better be good on your feet ... I don’t think I’m saying anything controversial, am I?” [via Vulture]" http://www.telegraph.co.uk/women/womens-life/11836674/Rape-victim-Chrissie-Hynde-deserves-our-sympathy.html Slammed by other victims. |

I certainly don't think any victim of rape is responsible for it. The rapist is! However, I do believe that women need to use some common sense and maintain situational awareness to avoid it.
Walking around defenseless and drunk with people you don't know or can't trust is not a strategy for survival. |

I was discussing this with the wife this morning when she told me about it. It's kinda like if I was to wear expensive flashy shit and start walking through the Ghetto. In a lawful utopia I should be fine, and I should reach my destination without issue. However in reality there is probably a fairly good chance my ass is getting robbed. Sure the fucker that robed me is a piece of shit and committed a crime, but I should have been expecting something bad to happen.
Of course I am not saying all instances are so cut and dry but women should be more cautious |

Increasing your risk of something bad happening by engaging in provacative behavior doesn't condone a violent act being committed against you. However, it does make you stupid, and bad things often happen to stupid people. It doesn't make it right, it just means you live in the real world, not some make believe world where you can strut your pretty ass around in front of 10 drunk, horny outlaw bikers and have nothing happen.
Open your eyes, don't be stupid. How hard is that? By the time you're old enough to go to college you should have that figured out. |

No, everyone has a personal scale of responsibility. |

1-Ultimately you have primary responsibility for your safety and security.
2-It isn't an act of god when you do something stupid and your safety and security is compromised 3-Failure to recognize you have done something stupid, and blaming your jeopardized safety and security on an act of god anyway, means you better like or get used to living dangerously. Not responsible for rape but responsible for bad PERSEC. Doesn't excuse the rape, find the rapist and put him down. |

But forget the rape aspect, Why do women wear skimpy clothes? Please don't say "I wear it for myself".... no woman wears 7" heels and bloodies their feet "for themselves" they wear it to Show off, intimidate other women, or attract men (or women). I think the idea is, the more attention you get, the more chances for BAD attention you may also get, so while it's not a "YOUR FAULT YOU GOT RAPED" it's more of a "Everyone stared at you when you walked in, so you had EVERYONE's attention, thanks to that outfit, or lack-there-of, and you also got the attention of Rapey McDirtbag." I hope I explained that correctly so no one thinks I'm blaming anyone for being the victim of rape. |

There's a pretty long history in the courts of attacking the victim's behavior. It's only recently that laws have been passed that forbid the defense in rape cases from bringing up the victim's past sexual behavior. I can understand women's sensitivity on the subject. |

Since the 9th Circus decided that a woman can withdraw consent in mid-act and failure to immediately stop is a rape it's amazing that there aren't daily multiple arrests everywhere.

Not at all - they should both be sent to prison. But we should be able to say to other young women, and our daughters, "She was stupid - don't do that." Quote HistoryQuoted:

I certainly don't think any victim of rape is responsible for it. The rapist is! However, I do believe that women need to use some common sense and maintain situational awareness to avoid it. Walking around defenseless and drunk with people you don't know or can't trust is not a strategy for survival. I don't necessarily disagree with this, but where does this take us? Does the person who rapes a drunk woman in a short, tight skirt get a lesser sentence than the one who rapes a stone sober one in a burqa? Not at all - they should both be sent to prison. But we should be able to say to other young women, and our daughters, "She was stupid - don't do that." That's certainly the way I was raised and that's the way I'd have raised my daughter, if I'd had one But it's a funny thing: unless there an actual rape under discussion, a woman who acknowledges that she is at risk in a way that men typically are not and needs to behave accordingly, is often derided as man- hating feminist throwing the victim card unjustifiably and accusing all men of being potential rapists. Of course, when there is, it's all "She was asking for trouble. Just the way it is. <shrug> |

Nope. But forget the rape aspect, Why do women wear skimpy clothes? Please don't say "I wear it for myself".... no woman wears 7" heels and bloodies their feet "for themselves" they wear it to Show off, intimidate other women, or attract men (or women). I think the idea is, the more attention you get, the more chances for BAD attention you may also get, so while it's not a "YOUR FAULT YOU GOT RAPED" it's more of a "Everyone stared at you when you walked in, so you had EVERYONE's attention, thanks to that outfit, or lack-there-of, and you also got the attention of Rapey McDirtbag." I hope I explained that correctly so no one thinks I'm blaming anyone for being the victim of rape. Quote HistoryQuoted:
