....to anything else



it's being offered to demonstrate a scenario where a victim is clearly responsible for precipitating an attack on her









will you tell her she's being a damn fool?


No not that part. This one:
The biblical view is God holds the rapist guilty not the victim regardless of the circumstances. You're free to feel your own thoughts based on your emotions but I will stick with God's word as my final authority concerning all things pertaining to man.

what if the woman doesn't cry out?


I know that many girls have been tragically overcome with terror that they go into a syndrome of psychological mute paranoia and endure the abuse. Is this what you are describing?

Again, the biblical view, biblical view is that God holds the rapist responsible for the crime.

If you were the judge presiding over such a case, and based on your human evaluation based in human reasoning, and your judgement set the rapist free without penalty then God would hold you under greater judgement based on His word concerning sin since you had been in a position of power to decide such cases.

You're free to judge in the affairs of man and to have your own intellect as your guide however, in the spiritual realm and in the eternal, our judgements will be weighed according to the standard of God which is: flawless perfection continually. Sin must be punished by God or He cannot be God. The rapist commits the sin of forced fornication upon a victim who is unable to stop the force due to her physically weaker abilities.

This is fun, like lawyers no?

People like to have the illusion they have control. Not having control bugs them to death.
Since they cannot control the rapist from raping, they look for control wherever they can.
Their answer is to go directly after the victim for control rather than the perpetrator as to somehow soften the sole responsibility of the perp, and thus give them the sensation of having some control over the rapist. We will control the rapist by starvation, so to speak. This 'starvation' must come from the rest of society since the rapist himself cannot be controlled.

The blame game starts. All over a myth. A myth that they can have control over a rapist.

To justify their new found control myth, they perpetuate the stigma of “he can’t help it” and “she asked for it”. Spread and repeat this enough, and the sheep will start to believe and accept it as the norm, and even praise the 'controllers' (for the myth) so they too can not feel so powerless in the matter.

After their faulty behaviorism of supporting such a myth, they are perplexed as to why society still holds onto this stigma, when it is they themselves that are guilty of preserving that myth rather than change it.

If you really want to change the rape culture, trash the myth and get down to the brass tacks.
