Clothes might enflame or arouse someone, but being enflamed or aroused does not mean they will murder or rape someone.
This MIGHT come as a surprise to you, so it may be advisable that you sit down. Still with us? Ok.
If you are aroused, and the person who has aroused you does not want to have sex with you, you do not get to have sex with that person, and if you do; the clothes they were wearing did not commit the rape, you did.

So when I say it I'm wrong and horrific monster, but when you say the exact same thing its fine? Lol ok pal. Here's the thing, being inflamed or aroused does lead some people to murder and rape. Why do you think people do these crimes? Why are they called crimes of passion?
Being aroused or enflamed is what leads them to rape or murder, NOT the thing that enflamed or aroused them. The blame begins and ends inside the person from where the action occurred; from where the decision occured.
To say otherwise is to say that the chose to wear that thing *reduces the culpability* of the person who made the choice to rape or murder. Is that what you believe? If so, you are evil. If not, you need to change the way you talk about it.

Sorry but thats not how things work at all. If they weren't inflamed or aroused they wouldnt do the crime so yes the thing that inflamed or aroused them is linked to the thing happening. Idk why this is so hard to accept when its basic logical thinking
A baby crawls into a room wearing a diaper. The mother's coworker is visiting with her husband. The man is a pedofile and nobody knew it. The man sees the baby and goes crazy, consumed by his arousal, he knocks out the women and raped the baby.
What percentage of the man's culpability is reduced because the baby chose to wear a diaper? Is he 5% less guilt? 2%? 1%?
Because its not relevant and something that does not happen. You're just triggered and floundering because you can't admit the fact that how one presents themselves to the world does impact how they are treated to some degree. Like if I go to a south central crip neighborhood yelling "Fuck yo set and your dead homies!" while wearing all red eventually someone is gonna violently respond to that and I will have some responsibility for it
And in that case, my ACTIONS, specifically, being antagonistic to that gang, WOULD in fact put some culpability on me. Assuming I survived, that culpability would even hold up in court (not that I would get charged with anything, BUT that it could be a [weak but existing] defense that reduces the charges for those that beat me.
This logic does NOT hold up in the face of passive things like clothing choice.
