So if a woman was raped in a parking lot on the way to her car, is she responsible for her own actions? Is she to be held accountable, for being less physically strong than the man who raped her?
Responsibility for onesself can only go so far. Sad, but true. There IS only so much that a woman can do, to defend herself. And when you're on your back with your legs spread and someone is inbetween them (no matter how gently) then you are at that person's mercy. How exactly was Brooke supposed to prevent it from happening? She had her hand on the dildo, trying to stop it from hurting her more, and that didn't work. She tried to say "No" and that didn't work, in fact she was told to "Shut up" Tell me how Brooke was supposed to "get up" and "leave" with Melissa between her legs, the back of the couch at one side of her, and guys on the other side of her. She couldn't go anywhere! She did what she could, and it was ignored.
