no. None of our clothing or behavior is inviting. Only people who hurt and harass women in this way, just because they “look somehow” or “did something” can be guilty. Let’s stop blaming the victims and stop pretending the problem doesn’t exist. Perhaps this will make situations like Emma’s that are experienced and documented less frequently.
