What makes you think anyone wins? We certainly don't - if we let go and have fun and get raped, we were asking for it, and if we don't we live our whole lives in at least some degree of fear. I mean, you're upset at being tarred as a bad guy simply for being male, while we're upset at the high probability that we will be assaulted if we don't treat every male that way at least at first. Neither is great - but I think the fear of being assaulted trumps the fear that someone will mistake you for a potential assailant.
