Hypothetical situation:

There is a serial rapist out there that is only preying on blonde women. While many women would run to the store and dye their hair, some would not. Although definitely not deserving of rape, would the woman bear any responsiblity at all for not taking the necessary precautions and dying their hair to eliminate themselves as a potential target?

I don't know the answer but would like to hear some opinions. I'm well aware that rapists accost women of all ages, looks, etc. and that it is not about sex but about violence and such. Do most rapists prey on women who are more sexually appealing? I don't know the statistics. However if I was a woman I would take as many precautions as possible, whether it be how I dress or when I'm out at night or not being alone.
