Honestly i wouldnt blame women if they did this here (in my city), since there is atleast two rapes aweek here. And the police is too stupid to find the rapist, even when they know what he looks like (drawing). But the girls are always drunk, and wanders into the wrong streets 3:00 in the morning. Why, i do not know.

No but REASONS are NOT excuses..I really dislike how people mistake my stating REASONS or observations as excuses. I am NOT saying such things are right but i AM saying there may be reasons and by knowing/accepting these reasons exist we can better protect ourselves and others.
There's a fine line between "cautious" and "obviously going out of my way to avoid men because they'll rape me." Granted, those two are extremes, but still.
And not all feminists are like that. Much like some religious people (Christian, Islam, Jews, etc) just because we see it the most means that that is how they all are. I had a feminist prof during my undergrad and I never felt emasculated or put down because I was a man in her class. Her feminist ideals were common sense and went along the "everyone should be equal" lines.

You would be wrong. There are many things that are Black and White.

'Twas a cutlass swipe or an ounce of lead
Or a yawing hole in a battered head
And the scuppers clogged with rotting red
And there they lay I damn me eyes
All lookouts clapped on Paradise
All souls bound just contrarywise, yo ho ho and a bottle of rum!
In fact as far as I'm aware the UK is the only european nation that outright bans guns for civilians.This is why people ban guns. Gun supporters don't know what guns are.Shotguns I'll give you (provided you're allowed 12 and larger gauges... because I mean... come on...) but not .22s.
Heh talk about not getting me. Reasons are more complex then that. I have NEVER said rape is good or justifiable..well i don;t mean it like that at least. This is a VERY touchy subject with no real balck and white short of MAYBE the classic rapist that we see in so many portrayals. I try to understand the reasons behind things to better deal with them that is not bad. But it also means sometimes you need to see things differently and even try to understand others such as rapists.
We're humans not animals.

Certain forces certainly have created stereotypes for the average rapist, and human paranoia (or should I be reasonable and say their "fight or flight" instinctual response?) has extended it even further, making all people (primarily men - because who's ever looked at a woman and thought "RAPIST!"?) seem like a potential attacker. The dark, it seems, also plays its hand at making people scarier, for humans cannot see as well in the darkness, making it the best time for crime.
But hey, is it worth it to be so cautious? If it's going to happen, it probably will, so why not relieve yourself of anticipatory worry and face the worry when it's necessary? Sure, one could say, "So what you're saying is walk through a shady alleyway rather than on a safer sidewalk because it's not worth it to analyze risk?" VALID QUESTIONING. But if you're being so cautious in the first place, just wield yourself with a preventive weapon. No use limiting yourself, being afraid to go out at night, being afraid of men with beards, etc. and so forth. You're just making it easier for the actual rapist to analyze all the ways their victim analyze their own risk, allowing them the luxury of knowing when you're least cautious.
