First, stop thinking about rape for a bit to understand why I say, No, I don't think a victim SHOULD ALWAYS be blame free as a rule, like if you tried to hug a hungry tiger, you are bound to be eaten, and you'd rightly deserve the blame not the tiger.
The problem here is rape is a very sensitive issue, and it tends to make people a bit biased. Rape IS WRONG and the perpetrator needs to be dealt with harshly. No one so far is disagreeing with that! But not looking at the context is also wrong. I am not saying the context excuses the rapist, but the context shows what went wrong and what could have been changed to avoid the event.
Being raped and being stupid enough to ignore all survival instincts are two different issues. And in this case the second directly led to the first, so maybe instead of ignoring it entirely, learn from it as to what not to do in future?
