Is it any surprise that elements of the public take a victim blaming stance to rape when that's exactly what the LNP have been doing. Our own PM came out and used rhetoric like "found herself in that position" as though she was to blame in part (not to mention used his dirt unit to background Murdoch journalists who have been running stories that attempt to discredit Higgins).
I agree that there are some issues there because of the position she put herself in but my word getting drunk is not a consent or does it imply consent.
Some of the comments are stating that even if she didn't consent, by getting drunk she then consented or that the alleged staffer could assume she consented.
Like **** seriously, what planet are we on at the moment.
Read my reply. It is directed at you because you have double standards
