So, in western society, raping someone is illegal and a rapist may have to take responsibility for that. But do you ever think the victim of a rape has to take responsibility for getting victimized in the first place? Is a rape the fault of the rapist, the victim or a bit of both?

I think we need to take consideration that the ideas and traditions in a lot of Middle eastern cultures is that women are still classed as second best, and to serve the male needs. Tendencies are to blame the women for any sexual provocation. Dressing is an example. So it's really a sexist situation for the most part over there.

Just because you felt like it was your decision doesn't mean you weren't raped. It's still statutory.

Statutory rape actually, not pedophilia.

I was wondering the same thing myself. Kind of makes me wish this was a public poll. It's never the victim's fault. Nobody ASKS to be raped FFS.

Yeah, I know, I already corrected myself in a previous post For some reason I thought it extended to 16 in some pedophilia cases but I was wrong!

That's what I thought...
My ex raped me during the restraining order and I never reported it bc I could get in trouble for inviting him over. This was 8 yrs ago. I have no interest in pursuing the matter bc I never want to see him again. He stalked me for years, but he is long gone now.

What kind of a senseless, inconsiderate bastard of a question is this? Of course it's the victim's fault.

Same here, I'd love to know who is saying its the victims fault!

I had sex when I was 15 with an 18 year old, but I was the one that initiated it so I don't believe it was rape in my case.

Doesn't matter still rape. He could have said no and turned you down. Lucky for him no one found out or he would be branded as a sex offender
