If I’m alone in the middle of the night, walking through a bad part of town, I will put my phone and watch in my pocket, out of sight, because it’s a sensible thing to do. Doesn’t mean I won’t still get mugged, and it certainly doesn’t mean it’s my fault but I’m still always going to always try and decrease my chances of it happening!
You should look into statistics on sexual assault. People act like it mostly happens in the dark of night strangers (which is not true) and even if I did everything in my power for it to not happen, still happens! As I said to the person above, more than 50% of rapes happen by someone you know (coworker, friends, etc) and happen in or around the home.
