Lots of people who are raped believe it's their fault regardless. I was raped when I was 6 yet my mind still finds a way to muddy the waters. I know logically it's ridiculous to think it was my fault, yet here we are. Just saying in case you're subconsciously thinking the related sentiment that if you were raped, you wouldn't be blaming yourself and therefore it wasn't rape. The guilt or self blame or whatever isn't an accurate gauge of reality.
ETA - What I'm getting at is that you can even define a rape as rape yet your mind will come up with ways that you "made" someone rape you, which is not a thing.
