I think reality is this: on an individual level, you wouldn't really expect ANY man to lose control of himself in response to certain clothing or behaviors. However, on a statistical level, we know for sure that certain clothing and behaviors will raise a woman's risk of being raped.
If it makes anyone feel better to blame the rapists, that's fine. They are out of control monsters. But we know they exist, and as sad as that is, that's a reality of the human species. All the justified blame in the world won't serve as a very effective barrier against a drunk monster's penis. But staying home, dressing conservatively, and meeting guys only at your local church probably will reduce risk a lot.
Funny. I lost my virginity by being raped by a youth pastor at my church. I guess I was doing it wrong.
