    This looks a lot like victim blaming.

    If the alleged facts are indeed true, it is incredibly difficult to even manage to get the police to care, let alone act. Not to mention the social stigma and the trauma.

        You can’t really believe it is that easy. Filing a police report is, in most countries, an excruciating exercise in frustration and humiliation for women victims of harassment. It carries social stigma on a level that is astounding. Add to this the level of gaslighting usually deployed by abusers and you have a recipe for self censorship.
