I cannot understand why there is all the outrage. It is a perfectly fair question. An interviewer is there to put the questions that viewers would like to ask and not just the nice ones or ones which happen to favour the majority view point. All sides of the argument should be brought out. That is what an interviewer is there for. She has put herself in the public eye, as an anti rape spokesperson, which is fair enough, but she cannot expect to get only the questions which favour her point of view. I would have been asking her, 'were you staggering along the road?' 'How many drinks had you had that night and were you drunk?' and 'What were you wearing that night?'
She says that she and a friend walked home and at her friend's street she left her and walked on, alone. They could have got a taxi and paid half each. No taxi driver that I know objects to stopping, briefly, on route to drop one girl off and continue onward.
We continually see women lying in the gutter in various states of undress. Others seem to delight in flashing their underwear at anyone who will look at them. Guys are photographed writing telephone numbers on the inner thighs of drunk women in the street. Then they complain because they are attacked!!
I certainly feel that some, but not all, women contribute by their behaviour and by wandering about, drunk, with what little covering they are wearing, in disarray. Sentences should be doled out accordingly.
