I think we're way too focused on "who's fault is it"? "Who do we blame?" Who gives a ****, it's not important. Anyone who genuinely believes it's the victim's fault they were raped is a complete idiot.
But if there were two stores next to each other, and one had bars on the windows and an alarm system and lights off, and the other had no bars, no alarm, a sign saying that it did not have an alarm, lights off and the door open...you could practically make a fortune betting which one would get robbed if a robber was given a choice which one they'd rather rob.
Still not saying it's okay to rob either place. And the store should be able to wear what it wants. There are reasons that one store will always have a higher chance of being robbed.
Or maybe you can't compare stores to people. But I'm just trying to make a point.

But there's really no way to make a guide on how to get raped less. As I said before, people have been raped wearing the least revealing clothes ever. and what about women in muslim countries? how on earth are those women treated equal? they cannot wear even stuff that reveals their face and they still get raped.
So in lieu of this...here's my (lol) guide to getting raped less: stay in groups of friends you trust. you're more likely to get raped if you're alone. THERE! So there IS something you can do to make it less likely to get raped! (AND it still never makes it the victims fault for getting raped)
edit2: cool. guess likes go away when you edit. i'm okay with this.![]()
