When people blame a woman's attire as a cause for her rape, they often mean it as dominating cause. Yet there are far more compelling "reasons" ranging from conviniance (to the rapist) to being reminded of someone the rapist hates and so on. About the only one of the profiles in which her "looks" could be a secondary factor is the "power-reassurance rapist" (less than 28% of cases). For the rest it is at best a tertiary factor. Even then, given that such a rapist profiles his victim, who can tell how important of a factor her cloth is. The bottom line, how much like a victim a woman looks is a lot more important than how sexy she looks.
