why does it matter?

It does when you can't remember
so you lie about it

She's the one who said what she was wearing because she was going to use it in DNA testing... The problem is that the clothes she claimed to be wearing were not available for sale until years after her assault claim... not to mention her defense team decided not to get the clothes tested because of their fears there would be other DNA samples on them...

AND Dick Wolf just "Happened" to make a L&O depicting the same thing in the SAME STORE !

But it will sure help avoid those crimes.

So it's not the rapist's fault if he sees someone dressed in an attractive way? It's the woman's fault?

I did not said that. But a little of modesty goes a long way. No need to be tempting anyone.

You're still saying, "It's still kind of her fault because she's temping him." The rapist is 100% at fault and nobody else. Rapists are always at fault. Don't even try to justify it by saying, "She should be more modest."

I am saying bad situations can be prevented.

Will you go into a beach with a sign that reads shark in water, and you still decide to get in the water and blame the shark for biting your arm off? Predators are going to do what predators do. Stay away from them and not tempt them. And I talk for the many young ladies and guys(rape is not exclusive to girls) that 1. Go alone to clubs 2. Go dressed as hookers 3. Get highly intoxicated then the next morning is OMG I was raped! Granted that does not count for all rapes, but it does for the large majority. Could have been easily avoided. And no rape is not right, but tempting people is not right either.

The shark is acting on instinct. Nobody is going to blame a shark or bear when it is acting on its instincts. Sharks are amoral meaning they don't have a feeling or right or wrong; just instinct. Humans on the other hand can be immoral meaning they know it's wrong but do it anyway. You can't just say, "Rapists will be rapists". You can't even make the argument, "She was tempting him". The idea that a victim should take any of the blame is an extremely absurd idea. Also, in case you didn't know, rapists don't care what the person is wearing. Why does sexual assault happen to people no matter what they're wearing? There's an exhibit called "I was wearing this when it happened" or something like that and you will see that rapists will rape anyone without exceptions.

Shark was an example. Reproduction is also an instinct, so your argument falls flat, just that animals can call out rape, now can they? It is also immoral for someone to dress scantily and seduce someone else. Yes, the example I provided does not account for ALL rape cases, but a large majority. Again many situations can be avoided. You just have to be smart and discerning. For example, is it smart for a young lady to go to a bar by herself, wearing scantily clothes and getting shitface drunk and teasing the guys in the bar? Stupid decision result in stupid results, and that is the majority cuz parents are not teaching their kids better. I think we also have a big problem with pornography easily accessible and free. Also we have lots of people who need to be getting cared for mental disorders who are now celebrated instead of giving them the care they need to overcome that disorder. You are going in circles in your head, fueled by emotions rather than reason and ignoring my point.

Animals cannot consent to one another and they don't need to. Their purpose is to reproduce and eat. It is not normal for a human to reproduce without consent. Humans are different. Bro, nobody is seducing you and asking you to rape them. Also, in case you didn't know rape is often committed by someone who already knows that person. Also, nobody is celebrating rapists. You keep making the argument that, "the rapist is only half the problem". No, you're 100% wrong, rapists are 100% of the problem and people like you need to stop justifying it.

Irrelevant. The message you are giving in your meme is "you should be able to play with fire without getting burned". The reason why you are so in the offense with me is that the message i am giving is "be smart, don't go looking for trouble". You look for trouble, you will find it. Cheers.

Rapists should be afraid of other people. Have you seen those videos of predator catchers where they meet them and beat them up? That should be more common for rapists. You can argue, "They have rights too" but I think once you stoop to that level, you don't deserve any rights or protections.

I am not defending rapist. I am countering you "you should be able to play with fire without getting burned" meme with a message saying "don't be stupid. Don't go looking for trouble".

You should be able to do what you want without the fear of people like that existing. The problem is when it happens people like you try to shift the blame to the victim.

"You should be able to do what you want

People aren't "looking for trouble" based on the clothes they wear.

"You should be able to do what you want without the fear of people like that existing" Read the whole sentence and stop justifying rapists. You really have no sense of right and wrong. To you, rape is okay if you think it's okay or you felt justified doing it because the other person was "tempting you".

Still nothing has changed. I do not think rapist are afraid of other people. I mean, your sentence still lacks substance. I honestly belive in a society for it to work we need laws, rules and regulations. Everyone should not be able to do what they want specially it it hurts others and they need to abide by those rules, laws and regulations. Also, actions have consequences.

Also remember. People were not born rapist. Maybe we need to tackle the cause that made them that way.

A rapist is born messed up. Idk about you but I feel zero sympathy for them. Let them rot to death. Stop saying "It's not really their fault, someone made them like that."
