There are people who will blame the victim, always, that much is true. Far from the majority in my experience; more like a toxic few. However the way that it was stated is sarcastic and passive aggressive and over-riding the point. In my opinion.

I would also point out that in my experience, the types of comments you mention come from other women far more often than they do from men.
