Rapists are scum, but in cases like this, women should be held responsible too. Why oh why do you get completely and totally sloshed while you're alone with no (sober) friend with you? If you're a woman and do it high chance you'll get raped. If I do it I'm 100% gonna lose my wallet and anything else that's valuable on me. Stealing is a crime, but I'd be fucking retarded for putting myself in that situation.

A very shallow scan of the comments in here seem to lean into the logic that she deserved it? At what point do women deserve to be raped exactly, and where is the blame for the perpetrator in these scenarios? I'm aware we live in a fucked up culture, but that shouldn't be a basis for perpetually low expectations when it comes to male behaviour.
