She Was Asking For It

Is one of the most famous/infamous sayings in the English or any other language it has been used by every wife beater and rapist to justify their crime.
One of the latest examples is a pervert on death row in India. It likes to tell anyone who will listen that the girl it and its accomplices raped so badly she died was asking for it because she was out after nine pm, because she was with her boyfriend and because she got on the bus it was on with its accomplices who included the bus driver.
What should be shocking but knowing the perpetrators it isn’t is that the phrase has also been used to justify the attacks on me. Its happened several times so not a one off but something that’s been discussed and agreed among them.
The last time it was used was last night the time before that Mark gave a mangled version which added up to the same thing and throughout my emails there are other versions all adding up to the ‘She Was Asking For it’ defence.
Nonsense and deliberately offensive nonsense at that but what is interesting and what as usual this gang of perverts have apparently failed to notice is the admission contained within the phrase of how serious the crimes they committed are.
Its not a silly game its serious criminal offences which include taking and sharing illegal images, hacking and destroying emails and other material on my laptop, stalking, voyeurism and giving my address to members of their ‘community’, home invasion and so on.
