A lot of people were giving the girl some of the responsibility in the rape.
She is not responsible for being raped. He is responsible, if that is, in fact, what happened.
I think some people, myself included, view all sexual misconduct allegations, including rape, through a skeptical lens - as they should.
Especially in light of what's going on in today's world. If someone grabs my arse, I don't view that as sexual assault, some do. If someone asks me out and I say no, that's not harassment. That's me declining a date. I'm not that easily offended and don't need to have my virginal ears protected from salty or sexual language at work. Some people are easily offended and do need others' protection.
All of this is why there should be skepticism. Why the question of why she didn't leave needs to be asked. Why did she wait to seek treatment or contact the police? There are valid answers to all those questions. But, they do need to be asked.

This one seems pretty cut and dry though, so y'all are applying skepticism to seemingly the wrong case.

If it's unwanted, it probably is.

Never heard this before. If someone claimed this as harrasment they'd be a clown.

It serves no purpose but to put responsibility on the victim.
it's not some random guy she felt she needed to run from, it was a close friend that I'm sure she felt would stop, but didn't. quote:

It said she told her parents and counselors within 1-3 weeks. I'm not going to really question the time table of someone who was raped by a close friend they've known forever. I could only imagine the conflicting thoughts that ran through her head.
