You're not addressing Stu's point. Yes, you can blame human instinct, but blame is different than an excuse. People do stupid, cruel and inhuman things all the time, and many times its either in the nature to do so or their actions are a result of their present condition.
None of this means the perpetrator shouldn't be punished; they should be punished to the fullest extent. It also doesn't make the girl any less raped. Whether its right or wrong to expect young women to dress more conservatively doesn't matter. Its irrelevant. What does matter is the reality of the situation, not the utopian ideal.
