Subject: RE: BS: Some rape victims should take blame
Many women too, lest we forget, are raped by invading armies. I guess they are 'asking for it' because they happen to live in a warzone.

Forget the clothing issue... forget the alcohol...

There are many reasons rapists rape but most is to do with sheer power and control. Pointinga finger at the victim only gives credence to the rapist and almost makes sure women (or men) will not come forward only to get rapedagain by the legal system and society
