Subject: RE: BS: 'Some rape victims should take blame'- ??
No. period.
Re the "Bloody Mary" video: Why anyone would say "This video does have a dark humour in it" totally eludes me. (1). I find it totally revolting, but I hope it is seen by many of those young people whose behaviour is so out of control that they are in danger of ruining their lives. (2)The young woman in the video has obviously behaved extremely unwisely. But if she were raped, the guilt for the rape would fall solely - absolutely solely - on the rapist. I would posit that she would actually be in more danger of ill considered consensual sex, without precautions and with serious risk of tragic consequences, than in danger of rape.

As regards this from Lizzie, "there have always been unscrupulous and dangerous women around, who loved leading men on, as I have spoken of before. There always have been and there always will be. What has happened now though, is that the behaviour of a minority has rippled right out into the behaviour of the majority" How dare you imply that the behaviour of the seriously disturbed, horribly twisted woman whom that statement refers back to is even remotely reflected in the behaviour of the majority of young women today.
