You quite clearly state here that the way the woman dressed caused HER rape. Maybe you're the one that doesn't get it.

It seems to be you who is taking that comment as me saying that she desevred to be raped. I never said that and by the time the thread ended you seemed to be the only person who thought that I did.

If my point isn't strictly related to this thread then that's fine - that doesn't mean that its wrong though and you're trying to say that it is.

Where do you get that idea and what (facts) do you base your opinion on?

No rapist has said it.
No victim has said it.
No police detective has said it.
No psychologist has said it
Just YOU and others that are as misguided as YOU!

There were many participants in that thread (some of who were law enforcement personnel, rape victims, and mental health workers) there were also links to studies as well as rape statistics. None of them supported your theory.

It was neither proven or disproved, as it was never scientific fact. It was my supposition and wasnt related to rape, it was a general statement following on from Davys comment about soccer shirts. I said that appropriate clothing is one way to protect yourself.
Given an extreme, go into a Synagogue wearing a swastika t-shirt, and send someone else in with a non-offensive clothing. Does dressing appropriately reduce the risk of an attack?.. Of course it does.
