Unfortunately, it seems there are so many situations in which rape is "validated" due to circumstances and/or lifestyles, even the clothing a woman wears can be questioned.

Rape is rape. Although things are changing (much to slowly as far as I am concerned), there is such a long way to go.

That doesn't even touch on societies in which even if it is believed that a woman was raped,and it was truly against her will, she is marked as a woman to be ashamed of, and even punished for being assaulted.

No wonder so many women never come forward.
