But you can't be making that argument because that argument is moronic.
It assumes that all men are just constantly running around in a state of pre-rape readiness just waiting (but hoping it doesn't happen) for the moment when some woman will let down her defenses and then, oops, you've been raped. You shouldn't have let your guard down, silly girl.
Women shouldn't have to walk around on their guard all the time, constantly fearing being attacked. Have you ever walked into a gay bar and felt like all the guys' eyes were on you and you felt uncomfortable as fuck because you felt like a piece of meat? That's pretty much what you're saying women should live their life in a constant state of.
Why should it be the woman's responsibility when prevention of rape is really as easy as NOT FUCKING RAPING SOMEONE. Jeez.
Sorry to rant, but this is something I feel very strongly about.
