title: Victim Blaming and Transgender Rape Victims
summary: "Last year, we dredged the ugliest depths of victim-blaming when a middle-school girl was gang-raped outside her homecoming dance, and a bunch of assholes got on the Internet to shame her for drinking alcohol. Thought that was bad? Consider what happens when a rape accusation is coming from a trans woman."
