<p>PBK Mom I’m not sweeping it under a rug, I’m saying there’s a difference between
“What a stupid girl, why was she walking alone at <em>insert time</em> she deserves everything she got!”
and
“Lets be careful and not walk around drunk at 3 in the morning, we already have several victims and that’s enough…”
because alot of people just blame the victim straight out. I’m tired of reading
“OMG that girl had a ridiculous short skirt, of course she was asking to be raped!” (i read this kinda thing on several rape articles) “Why was she <em>insert place</em>? She went there willingly, of course she was asking to be raped!” blah blah.
I get a little bit personal about these things because of an event that happened to a close friend in high school</p>
