This is the slippery slope OBK was talking about. For all we know this girl could be highly promiscuous and get snot slinging drunk regularly. She is a kid (so that changes things for me) but what if she were 20?

Is this a serious question?

I don't care if she's 16 or 40, the prom queen or a worn-out hooker. If someone makes him/herself an easier target by not being in full control of their faculties or choosing a higher risk lifestyle, it's not surprising to me when that someone is violated by a predator. But, it makes no difference at all as to whether I consider that person a victim and the violent criminally-minded asshole who chose to exploit and prey on another person's vulnerability fully to blame.

What if it was one of the Romeo football players that gets wasted every weekend and was anally raped, defecated on, and publicly humiliated by a bunch of other guys, or even girls with a pipe? Would you be asking if he is to blame because he's a sexually active partier? It's surprising to me that the "slut" bullshit is even a consideration in this question.

So, to answer the question, if she were 20, she wouldn't be any more to blame than if she were 16 (to me).
