Rape…it’s a violent crime not a “sexual act.”

Rape…it’s a violent crime not a “sexual act.”

It drives me crazy when I hear people say a woman was “asking for it” from the way she was dressed.

How come they don’t use this defense in other crimes? Get some middle aged man on the stand who was supposedly victimized…

“Sir, don’t you think by wearing a Rolex that you were asking to be mugged? You just like to flaunt it, don’t you Mr. Grey Poupon? Isn’t it true that the night before you were prancing around in a 20,000 dollar Tag Heuer?! You wanted to have that man touch your wrist and give you the attention you so desperately longed for! Admit it; you wanted to sniff the stale smell of a mugger’s malt liquor breath as he roughly removed your expensive time piece from your wrist! You were begging for it, weren’t you?!!”

If we’re going to go by that way of thinking there are a lot of people who ask for it by the way they dress, then let’s have it apply to men too.

“Of course I attacked him your honor; he was wearing one of those Speedo bathing suits with a big belly hanging over it.?

“Hit him again! Case dismissed!”
