Subject: RE: BS: Some rape victims should take blame
Remember old Star Trek, and the way the women dressed? They (the women) claimed it was liberating to be able to dress as "provocatively" as they wanted and it was OK, because in that future, men had manners.

That is pretty much how I feel about it. People with manners don't force their attentions on others.

Nowadays you'll hear men talk about how "exploitative" that clothing was...

Plus, there are several major religions that treat the human body as a temptation from the devil or something, and require women to take responsibility for what men think about them. Now, that is really a crock. Nudity is not evil, nor is the female body. Men's thoughts are just that, thoughts, let them have all they want, as long as they have manners (which means understanding that thought isn't action, or permission for action).
