Why is everybody suddenly against rape victims?

It's an interesting pathological condition. To some degree, I imagine, this is the product of sexual resentment on the part of many males who are confused about their gender roles due to the fact that women are not always submissive and deferential to them. To some other extent, many people want a scapegoat to blame for harsh economic conditions. Typical patriarchal thinking is that women possess sexual magic at the core of their putatively essential natures. Thus women seem overtly powerful and overtly wealthy at a time when many men are feeling a sense of poverty.
