“When you dress well, in a way that shows off your best physical attributes, is the reaction you intend to provoke sexual harassment or sexual assault? Would you complain if your attempt to dress in an exciting fashion resulted in such behavior from random people you had zero interest in?”

Dress like a thug people will assume you are a thug. Dress like a slut they will assume you are a slut. There is a difference between clothes that “accentuate your best features” and those that make you look like a hooker.

Dress like a thug people will assume you are a thug. Dress like a slut they will assume you are a slut.

Assumptions are one thing - assume away. But we weren't talking about assumptions. The original post was about the sexual assault of a 15 year old by her Olympic team doctor.

But even if we are talking about an adult, assumptions need to be leavened by some measure of common sense and reality - just because a woman dresses in a sexy way doesn't mean she wants your (not you, specifically) attention - if some people are too dim to get that, it's their problem.
