As long as you apply that principle equally.

I think the modern taboo about questioning why “victims” haven’t helped themselves and labelling it “victim-blaming” has actually been bad as it has prevented discussions as to how people can take steps to protect themselves.

I see a common thing with the me too movement isn't that women got abused or raped but that they had sex with a man in power who promised them certain things and then he doesn't follow thru. That's how it was with weinstein, a bunch of consensual sex that women later regretted and they say he had a power imbalance which is true but they could have just not had sex with him and then not gotten any acting jobs. And some did but got blacklisted.
