shit.
Well, you avoided getting raped, by defending yourself, although, I imagine you where talking about clothes. If they are going to rape someone they are going to do it regardless of what the woman is wearing. I think that wearing sexy clothes might make someone a more likely target. Maybe if what she was wearing turned him on, but I'm not a rapist or even a guy so I have no... I can't think of a word that could go here, but am I making sense? but I tend to dress modestly and am of the impression that dressing sexily doesn't help the idea of getting all men to stop thinking of women as objects. (of course, if he already doesn't think that it probably won't change his mind.) Sometimes, I wear female clothes-- like today. (I usually find female clothes uncomfortable, anyway.)
