It's not a woman's job to live in fear. It's a man's job NOT TO RAPE WOMEN.

Does that mean that I being a sexy woman should walk alone at night in southeast doc every night and not worry about men who look at me weird?[/quote]

It does not mean you should not be careful. It means you should not a blame the victim when something bad happens to her. If you do blame her, you are an asshole. [/quote]
I thought the argument was its not a girls job to take precaution?[/quote]

Op here - for me it is less about who is at fault and who should take precaution and more about where we focus the conversation in rape cases.  On the victim rather than the perpetrator.[/quote]

Being this happened twice has a rape counselor ever helped you out[/quote]

My current therapist is experienced in trauma, including rape and sexual assault.  Before her though, no. So I have 20 years (if you count back to highschool incident) or over 30 years (if you count back to molestation incident) of negative self talk and bad self esteem to overcome.  Not going to be overnight, I guess.[/quote]
