I know several women who have been raped because of something stupid they did (their own words) and they didn't report it....Opened a door, got in a car, got alone, went somewhere...whatever.

And they while they said no, and struggled, the problem was that they initialy liked the guy or at least didn't see him as any kind of threat. They had a certain level of trust. The best way I can put it, is that the shock of having that trust violated was paralysing while they were trying to process what was happening to them.

Their stories (that I knew years before this whole Kobe thing) are SO much like this girl's story, that I believe her. Case of Dumb Girl Syndrome.

"Case of Dumb Girl Syndrome."

Exactly. I believe MOST rapes dont get reported because the victim feels she was resposible in some way and fear of having to endure a low-life Attorney smear tactics such as Kobe's.

I dont know if this woman was raped or not, but blood during sex is not usual. That makes me wonder.

You just explained the problem. These women think they were raped because they think they did something to start it and it's their fault it happened. It's also why they don't report it. Reality is these women should be able to be naked and spread eagled in front of a topless bar and still not be expected to be raped.
