We've seen judges call underage girls responsible for their own rapes because they are "mature beyond their years" or overly sexual for their age. How do these judges think that happens? Once a girl is raped and as a result acts more sexual, she gets defined in a new way and seems to lose a number of her rights. It's horrifyingly sad.
