I mean, for example, some football players drugged and raped a girl at a party a few years ago and people called her a ****, told her she shouldn't have been drinking when underage (when her assailants had also done so), and lamented that her assailants were denied football scholarships after being convicted of rape and had to register as sex offenders. People watched her being assaulted and dragged around to other parties while totally unconscious and did nothing. Hell, some of them took pictures and videos and posted them online. That's pretty screwed up imo.
On a more personal note, I was personally told several years ago now that anyone saying they were raped by a significant other was simply lying because they can't not consent.

Nothing. Absolutely nothing.

I.e: Mike Rogers doesn't think it's rape unless the victim knows (s)he has been raped. Sounds legit.

EDIT: Oh, she was talking about the media. I made my point on common people excusing it. I guess the media is feeling the backlash now so they got a bit less awful about it (at least that's what happened here in Argentina).
