There are problems in giving out bad, unhelpful, inaccurate

Yes, sure, problems of accuracy. If rape prevention advice is wrong point that out.

advice that blames victims.

again, somehow any advice given to present rape is taken to be blaming the victim, while giving advice on any other crime is okay, for no discernible reason. Maybe you can give me one since you talk like you know so much about the topic.

the assumption that people that are raped get raped because they are sluts, are very, very closely related.

Getting raped because you are a slut us similar to getting hit by a car because you drive. It does not detract from the moral wrong of the crime or make the actions of the perpetrator okay. It merely says that there is a relationship between certain types of behaviour and certain risks.

MRAs like your self should get out of the rape prevention business, you are terrible at it and don't understand the debate.

Well maybe you can enlighten me? Or are you limited to asserting that I don't know what I am talking about?

So what exactly makes a certain type of advice victim blaming or not victim blaming? Because I am actually curious. The common test is that if the advice is given to rape victims it is victim blaming, otherwise it is okay.

Guys like you prove american rape culture feminists right with your bias on focusing on what rape victims allegedly do wrong and assumptions that women that don't live sub existences in which they never do anything that increases risk of the being rape, bring rape on themselves with their behaviour.

You are making an awful lot of assumptions here. I am not saying that women deserve to be raped in any circumstances, just that certain behaviours increase the risk. I also do not believe that rape perpetrators are in any way excused by any of these factors. What motivates me in this discussion is frustration at a double standard, and at the fact that any rape prevention advice is taken to be victim blaming, when such advice is in no way different from advice commonly given to people to prevent themselves from falling victim to all sorts of crimes.

The entire slut walk was founded on one police officer basically giving advice (which may have been bad and\or not factually supported, which is a different issue) on how to reduce one's chances of being raped.

When these guys focus entirely on how rape victims fail by living normal lives, they indirectly excuse rapists.

Here is the The Spearhead author suggesting that following drunk and vulnerable women down dark allies to rape them is normal.

If you want to live in a country where young women can go out on the town alone and get smashed, cavort with strangers and stumble around in dark alleys while simultaneously preventing every single man in the area from taking advantage of the opportunity, you have to have a very draconian set of laws and a constant police presence.

"The entire slut walk was founded on one police officer basically giving advice (which may have been bad and\or not factually supported, which is a different issue) on how to reduce one's chances of being raped.

The slut walk is based on a police office basically blaming clothes choices for rape, instead if rapists, which upsets a lot of people. Why do you guys want to do the same thing, even though you know we are not law enforcement and it starts international movements?
