But is a man partially responsible for his stolen money if he leaves the cash exposed, half way out of his pocket, wearing blindfolds while walking around drunk down a dark ally in the middle of the night?
In the eyes of the law, shes not responsible for anything that happens to her, she can even agree to sex, tease the man until his balls are dark blue, pull out and then tease him again with agreement that there will be sex and can still pull just at the last second again and still not be responsible for anything that happened to her. A man has to control his urges no matter what and we all know how easy it is to control our raging hormones

I think there is a difference between "she deserved it" and she was tempting fate...

If she says "No" or "Stop" etc at any time and he continues - it's rape.

No victim is ever responsible for "forced, unwanted sex against" their will.
