Cue HHBH.
I'm guessing that the victim blamers think that victims are deserving of their unfortunate events because it was possible for the victim to prevent the situation. Not going to parties and staying sober are ways to prevent being raped, for example. It's still a ridiculous argument, since it's the same as saying "if you didn't want to get attacked by a shark, you shouldn't have gone swimming at the beach," but I think that's where the mindset comes from. That and general misogyny, preference for the rapists, or some other factor that deludes a moron's manner of thinking, that is.
