The She Made Him Do It Theory of Everything

No matter what abusers take from their victims, they don't want to take the blame. And one of the prerogatives of power is to be in charge of blame, and abusers routinely exercise that power to make their own acts someone else's fault.

The logic was that somehow women were very powerful, which is why they got raped and beat up--their power consisted in making men to do things, which men were powerful enough in the sense of brute force to do but powerless in the sense of moral agency or self-control to resist doing.

Blaming the victim is another tactic in a campaign of control and power... Male violence was a given, and it was women who were supposed to alter their lives to avoid it and who were blamed not only by attackers but by society if we didn't succeed. - Mediations In An Emergency
