OK, let me see if you get the difference. Here is a hypothetical:
You are a college student living in university housing. You live in an all-female dorm and you are a very voluptuous, nice-looking female. The showers and bathrooms are community shared. You must walk across and down the hallway to get to them. It is Ok to run around in your skimpy PJs/underwear to get showered or use the toilet because it's just a bunch of girls.
But then, they change over the dorm to Co-ed and now there are a bunch of college boys in the same dorm who live in rooms right near yours. And so, might you choose to no longer run around in the skimpy clothes because it might be a bad idea? Of course, you could still do so, but most girls would not.
So then, if a girl keeps doing that and gets sexually assaulted by some dumb, drunk male student, would you not chastise her for being absolutely stupid? Of course you would prosecute the guy who assaulted her. But, you also have to hold her culpable for being unnecessarily provocative and recklessly oblivious.
Am I excusing bad behavior from the aggressor(s)? Absolutely not. But knowing that antagonizing a pit bill by poking or teasing it, might lead to it biting you. Why do it? Why not use some damn common sense?
