But that does not change the fact that they were there, more than just a manner of dress and they are a relevant, mitigating factor : this is a case of misread signals and inconsiderate behaviour There were signals given by the circumstances and indeed by the complainant, albeit the latter based upon self preservation, which ought not to be overlooked.

Consequences for victims: post-traumatic stress disorder, depression, sexual functioning.
