After reading some of these comments I think that yes, rapists are responsible when a woman gets raped. But my perspective on the whole thing is that a lot of young women today seem to have no respect for themselves. Having seen and heard some of them when they go out their behaviour is unbelievable. Trying not to be sexist, but young men have always had a reputation for being loud, brash and uninhibited in their behaviour when drunk eg bare bums are a major source of humour for them and so on. But girls would keep a certain amount of decorum in their behaviour. But now, it seems that the girls want to outdo the boys on who can behave the worst. Is it any wonder men get mixed messages and sadly, where the majority of men can control their urges and realise that non consensual sex is a big no go, there are some guys out there who will take advantage of the women's behaviour. It makes me sad to see women behaving like they do and I really hope in the future my own granddaughters will respect themselves more than I sometimes see. So, I think this judges warnings are what is needed and I am sure she still believes if a man rapes a woman he should get punished.
