Is it ok to blame some women for not being able to protect themselves against a man?

Maybe she was an idiot for walking to her car at night.

Maybe she should have had a weapon on her when the guy attacked her.

Maybe she should have tried to kick him in the dick to stop him from attacking her.

Whatever the case is, could it be her fault?

There was no way she could have predicted that they were gonna be attacked yes she should have pepper spray or some kind of weapon that could protect her but no you should not blame them they could have not changed anything when the man attacked.

Not unless she intentionally provoked him, in some way, which is unlikely.

There are things that people can do to minimize the potential dangers they expose themselves to, but it's ultimately the fault of the aggressor/attacker, and not the victim.

There is bad circumstances and situations and choices. But at the end of the day only one person chose to hurt another. So no it’s not the woman’s fault
