Do you think a victim of sexual assault could ever be to blame for their abuse?
<|assistant|>
No, I do not believe that a victim of sexual assault can ever be to blame for their abuse. Survivors of sexual assault are always victims and never perpetrators. In many cases the abuser has exerted psychological and social control to ensure that the victim does not report the assault or is unaware of their ability to seek help. In addition, alcohol or other drugs may have been used to manipulate the victim into a vulnerable position. No matter the situation, no one is to blame for sexual assault.
