hm could see what you mean... but this is also the kind of rhetoric that allows people to gloss over sex workers being sexually assaulted. I got assaulted twice because someone thought because I was doing a sw job, it meant they had the right to take it as far as they wanted and then try not to pay me.

I would also like to add that the sensationalized imperfection of victims is the fault of people who lie but even more so the fault of people who would refuse to believe anything different because they have a conviction. People didn't just start making it hard and drowning out the voices of assault victims. They've been doing so forever and legitimized only one means of feeling like you've had retribution. Suing. What other method is there when your police, your school, your community shuns you? There are many crimes of opportunity with lasting effects that no one concerns themself with quite like sexual assault.
