Because we fail to report it fail to protect public school children I know it happens outside of school as well. And knowingly prepare children mindsets victims predators and bystanders. Reducing Childhood adversities risk exposure’s And toxic environments in public schools. They seem to be a staple population that doesn’t have to be accountable for the children in their care.
I don't see how it's wrong to advice people to not go out alone at night or not get drunk with strangers at a shady place Yeah, it's the perpetrators fault but that doesn't change the fact going out alone at night and getting drunk at a shady house party is risky because it makes you vulnerable to that perpetrator. Both is true, how hard is this to understand? it's not a good idea to tell people to do whatever they want without thinking of the consequencs.
Your perspective is very fair however the issue can come with the fact that people have a nasty tendency to come down alot harder on the victim than they do on the perpetrator if the victim does not meet the credentials of the "perfect" victim as if they deserve what happened to them and that is just not okay it does not matter the circumstances at the end of it all they did not commit any heinous crimes I cannot wrap my head around why society thinks it's okay to come down on them as if they did it just winds up hurting them even more in the long run than the actual assault and lastly I would like to think we would all love to put a stop to sexual violence and I think that the first step to pulling this off is by not enabling the perpetrator and actually place the blame where it is due. Hope you have a good day x ❤
Sure risk of crime is higher in some areas and some situations (drinking alcohol in public). But when victims are asked, "what were you wearing" or "how much alcohol did you drink", it will be perceived as victim blaming, even if that wasn't your intention. The effect of victim blaming is that it turns bad situations into traumatic situations, because victims feel judged and blamed. This is incredibly toxic, it makes healing more difficult and longer. If you say something that's interpreted as victim blaming, that person is quite likely to end their friendship with you.
Thank you so much!
