And by the same token none of you can argue that there aren't women who feel that way. Well, you could argue it, but you would be wrong. In no way would I saddle the whole and hold them to the opinions of a few. I think a more correct statement would have been "...that there aren't people who feel that way."
My opinion, to clarify once again, on this whole de-railed thread topic, has been a matter of contributing factors and self responsibility for the protection of personal property.
There are some who nit-pick the words used to convey the thoughts on the matter. Namely the word 'blame'.
If I claim a factor which contributed to the likeilhood of my Gold bars being stolen from my driveway was the fact I left them sitting on my driveway, I could correctly say partial blame should be placed upon me.
"Blame" meaning some responsibility for the theft is mine due to the stupidity of leaving my Gold out on the driveway. It does NOT mean "It's all my fault".
If it was some piece of a companys, whom you work for, property you left out on the driveway and was stolen I doubt said company is going to say "It's not your fault. Not one iota, it's 100% the thiefs fault. No worrys, we'll get a new one."
No, you will be told "Dumbass! Why you leave it out on the driveway? It's your fault it was stolen. You gotta pay for it and we'll deduct it from your paycheck." You will be "blamed" for the theft.
I used to tell a lot of religious jokes. Not any more, I'm a registered sects offender.
