Victim blaming is not something I believe in when it comes to rape. I don't think a victim can ever be blamed for rape, under any circumstances. In my opinion, if it is a legitimate rape case, the onus is 100% on the rapist. I think it's utterly absurd that in today's society, people are using the actions of rape victims to shield the rapist and defend their crimes and try to abolish the rape shield law.

To those people who will likely comment to tore's question with things like "Oh but if she's dressed like that she's basically asking for it." Unless the words come out of his/her mouth saying that they consent to the sexual action, they are not asking for it.
