I think I worded it better (apparently why you quoted me): The woman is responsible only for "opening the door to trouble. But trouble still has to choose to step through." Your wording seems to imply that the "blame" is equal between victim and rapist. IMO, it isn't. She did something naive/desperate/stupid, and may deserve a lecture on common sense; he commited a crime, an act of aggression, and deserves to be locked up.As men, we must not project any insecurities we may have regarding female sexuality. 'Tis a great and mighty power the fair sex has, and "blaming the victim" is not the way to level the playing field.
Nicely put. Thanks.

Of course we can blame the so called "victim"! She knowingly went out dressed like a s1ut! We all know what sluts want right? A good pounding!!! It is ridiculous that some of you are disagreeing with my boy S_W_LeGenD right now.If a woman goes out and basically invites herself to be sexually assulted she is just as much to blame as the guy who did it! She might as well have been wearing a "please rape me" sign.
At the same time i think we can all agree that if a man is outside without a shirt on and is assulted by an homosexual rapist he is to blame as well. Might as well have worn a "come pound my anus" sign. Sound silly? Not at all friends! Clearly all the male on male rapes in prison are due to prisoners being provocatively dressed. Just a matter of time before it spills out onto our streets!!!
In closing i'd just like to point out that if we all covered ourselves up completely like nuns do there would be no more rape. As we all know Muslim women never ever get raped and that is clearly due to their modesty.
I'm in your corner S_W_LeGenD!!!!
Sigh!
I hate it when people simply jump to short-sighted conclusions without even understanding the point-of-view of OP.
To be honest, learn a thing or two from member Mindship. He seems to be mature in comparison to judgemental freaks like you.
Of-course, rapes occur in many countries. But STATISTICS is the key word. In some countries, rape occurrences are much higher in comparison to others. And my argument is not just extended to rapes but exploitation on the whole.
Several factors have led to an explosion in trafficking for sexual exploitation in the late twentieth century. Increasing sexual liberalism in the West after the so called ‘sexual revolution’ of the 1960s and 1970s, and the resulting creation of a considerable pornography industry, led to a greater acceptance of men’s sexual exploitation of women. There has been an increasing polarisation between the world’s rich and poor. A large number of military conflicts, particularly civil wars, have created vulnerable populations of women. The increasing impoverishment of post-communist countries has led to the ‘Natasha trade’, in which Russian women desperate for survival are being trafficked into pornography and prostitution industries around the world. Military prostitution (created by the US in Asia, and now everywhere that UN peacekeepers go) has led to an explosion of these industries. Internet technology has also greatly increased the scope for sexual exploitation.

Also, if you still do not get my point; visit the forums where Western women discuss their sexual history and the revelations may open your eyes.
Good luck with promoting nudity. Start from office.

Typical verdict of a judgemental freak. You should be more concerned about your attitude problems. Reserve your shaming lectures for those who take advantage of sexual liberalism and not me.
