Not being assaulted is not a privilege to be earned through the judicious application of personal safety strategies. A woman should be able to walk down the street at 4 in the morning in nothing but her socks, blind drunk, without being assaulted, and I, for one, am not going to do anything to imply that she is in any way responsible for her own assault if she fails to Adequately Protect Herself. Men aren’t helpless dick-driven maniacs who can’t help raping a vulnerable woman. It disrespects EVERYONE.”

Society has to stop treating victimes like they deserved what happened to them. Society had to listen to women’s voices and never even let them think that they are guilty.
Men are responsible for their acts.

That is very true. In my experience, being molested by a woman, they too are responsible. I keep getting so caught up in the idea that men do it, but women are capable of it too. I also need to post more things about male rape victims, I don’t always think about that side of things.
