You specifically described your scenario as a dangerous part of town, i.e. incidents like robbery or stabbings have a realistic chance to occur during night time. On the other hand, marriages are made with no visible or known signs that rape is a realistic possibility, especially because marriage is usually a decision that is made after a high level of trust has been built. As such, the two scenarios are not equal at all, hence why your analogy falls flat on its face.

All the analogies you use in your most recent post fall into the same category as "dangerous part of town", so they aren't any good either.

NO, I'm telling YOU for the sake of my example that the part of town in question is dangerous. Me, the person that decides to walk there does not know it's dangerous, obviously. If I knew it was dangerous It would not be a mistake of my part, it would be pure stupidity, knowing of a danger and still going towards it. So my point is I walk there without knowing it's specifically dangerous. That's what I mean when i said I walk to a dangerous part of town.

I'm sorry but it's obvious I did not know it's a dangerous part of town, why would anyone go on purpose, alone and on foot towards a danger?

Why would anyone marry someone else if they know in advance he/she is a rapist?

Wait, so you think that the individual is at fault for doing something that they had no reasonable expectation would result in negative consequences? That doesn't even make sense.

Like if a plane crashed into someone's house (and they live nowhere near an airport or anything involving planes), would you go up to the victim and say "you are an idiot. Take responsibility for your mistake of buying a house in a totally safe neighborhood."?

Like, what even is this argument? People should take responsibility for their mistake of making entirely reasonable decisions?

No, just accept that there is no reason to blame the victim here and move on.
