I don't disagree, I already said as much. What I do have an issue with is people with a platform perpetuating a narrative that inadvertently fails to address the root causes of sexual assault in the first place, and focuses more on preventative measures for the victim instead of the assailant.

Personally I think it's rather naive to believe that all or most perpetrators simply require better education. If they don't appear to get it in this day and age it's because either they have an IQ below 80 or they completely understand the wrong they do and simply don't give a flying **c* or actually get a kick out of being a sicko. Some people are just evil.

I also think potential victims need to be aware of that and take some responsibility to protect themselves. Yes women can wear what they want but don't incapacitate themselves with drink at the same time - it's just common sense.
