A way to avoid that

is to remember that the Stubenville parties and those like it were/are filled with girls and women that both allowed it to happen and then happily shamed the victim/s.

Rape culture is perpetuated by men to the point that some women are raised to believe that victims are somehow to blame for their assaults. I'm not sure what you're instructing the OP to "avoid" but I'm assuming it's the anger. When you're affected by rape culture, it's natural and healthy to be angry at those who keep it in place.

"Women are helpless stupid airheads, completely incapable of forming their own thoughts or opinions about anything, and the only thing they can do is parrot back what the all-powerful men have trained them to say and think!" is what you seem to believe. How empowering.

Women who think other women deserve or asked for their rapes did not come to that conclusion on their own. Luckily, most women don't believe the aforementioned, contrary to what your fallacious thinking alludes to.

Women are perfectly capable of being ignorant and judgmental on their own.

Did you know that women don't talk to other women?

Because I sure didn't.

Rape culture is perpetuated by men to the point that some women are raised to believe that victims are somehow to blame for their assaults.

The men perpetuating rape culture were also raised to believe that. Ergo, both men and women perpetuate rape culture, even though men 'benefit' from such perceptions more as a class of people. Both men and women ought to re-evaluate the beliefs they were raised with, and if they do not (or choose to double-down on erroneous beliefs), then that's on each and every one of them personally. No passes for the ladies on this-- women buying into rape culture is no less deleterious than men who do.

Men benefit far more from their privileges that women benefits from men's privileges. It's men that ingrain rape culture into our society, even if there are some women who participate.

NAYRT

That still doesn't give women a free pass to perpetuate rape culture, though? At some point, people can and should be held accountable for their own individual beliefs and actions. We can't just simply forgive women for their harmful thinking because "it's the men's fault anyway" - where does that get us? The blame falls on our society as a whole, not just one gender or the other. It's in everybody's best interest to dispel such beliefs whenever possible.
