""If you dress like a hooker, you'll be viewed as a hooker.

If you dress with self respect, you'll be treated with self respect.


It is not good enough for women to feel they can dress and behave however they want, and if anything happens, it's the man's fault.""

Do you really believe that crap Lizzie, or do you just like stirring up agro?

By your reckoning, no woman in a business suit, no eighty year old in her own home, no mum-to-be in a maternity dress, would ever be raped.

I've got news for you! It happens!.......OFTEN!

The point about rape is that, while it may have a sexual aspect, it is not about sex. It is primarily about power, and control over the victim.

There is NO excuse whatever for failing to respect a NO, regardless of how far things have progressed.

It is easy to form opinions based on stereotyping, and come to conclusions as to the stereotypical personality.

Extending that assessment to the point of convincing oneself that NO, in fact, means YES, and acting on that assumption, is entirely the responsibility of the perpetrator, and absolutely not that of the victim.

End of!
