WHEN a person is raped, be they man or woman, it is an awful ordeal for them them and absolutely terrifying too. It’s clear that the rapist is the perpetrator and the criminal – not the victim.
Of course people should be able to drink to excess and wear whatever clothes they please in a democratic society and still be safe. And in the ideal world, that would be fine, but we don’t live in an ideal world.
There are men out there who would target vulnerable girls and women, especially if they’re falling down drunk, as victims.
Judge Kushner was only asking girls to not put themselves at risk by being incapable through drink.
