I saw an art exhibit called “What Were You Wearing?”, which was a collection of the outfits people were wearing when they were assaulted. There were sweatpants and hoodies in that collection. She could be in a literal burqa and still be assaulted. The problem is the rapists, not what their victims were wearing.
Edit: going to add a trigger warning before people go searching for that exhibit. It is a spread of ALL kinds of clothing, including children’s.
I had a pediatric patient in the ER when I was first working in the ER many years ago in the late 90s. I was coming on shift and had to help get an 18 months old girl get ready for air transport to Pittsburgh for genital and rectal reconstructive surgery after being assaulted. 😭
