I didn't see any proof that taking a taxi home, or walking home with friends, or staying at friend's house, meant that those people had an equal chance of being raped. Are you really suggesting that there are an equal number of people getting raped in taxis, or with friends, than people who were stupid and decided to go home alone? Proof please.
Also, I didn't say you needed help. You've just proved my point; you can't stand the fact that I disagree, so instead of presenting arguments against my points, you lie and claim I'm a rapist (or share similar intent).
I also never said this advice is a form of common sense. I said that both "common sense" and "not taking risks" would lead to less rape instances in the women who follow that advice. You are making a faulty comparison by saying that rape incidences should have gone down because of this; that isn't what we are saying at all. What we are saying is that there is a reason why women in groups, or who take taxis home, or stay at friends, don't get raped. It's because they aren't taking a massive risk.
Rapists will go after women, and I'll agree that wearing clothing doesn't affect the intent of the rapist, but there are factors that will. If a rapist sees 3 girls walking home, and 1 girl walking home alone, you can bet that he's going to go for the girl alone. So, an accurate comparison for you to do is to look at the number of rapes that take place when the girl is walking home alone, and compare it to the number of rapes where the girl has taken a taxi or walked with friends.
