That is so disturbing QuietMind. Why are people so victim blaming? You're right about the burglary analogy; so true.
I'm wondering if this goes back to when crimes against women were acceptable, and it just hasn't run its course yet. 25 percent of women are victims of incest to this day; with so many of us, how can there be blaming?
A past therapist was like that with me when I disclosed rape to her. The first words out of her mouth were, "why didn't you xxxx". I left that one and never looked back.
