He is being an ass, trying to appear compassionate while placing the onus on an inanimate substance.

He's not saying alcohol is what the MEN are using, he's saying that excessive drinking can make some people make bad decisions and put themselves in bad situations where they are more able to be preyed upon BY the man who may rape them.
Parents constantly tell their daughters to "pay attention" "watch out for each other", etc. Its ALL valid.

HOW ABOUT:
GUYS. SHOULDN'T. RAPE.
This is NOT a "woman" problem. This is a RAPIST problem. And RAPISTS are usually MALE. This prick needs to talk to his male friends, NOT women or girls. THEY are not the problem. They're just the ones getting BLAMED for the problem. And unfortunately, THAT is what it means to be a woman or girl in this World - YOU get blamed or punished for it ALL, even when YOU are not the perp/cause (even wars, none of which were ever started by any female anywhere). Evidently, that is what some of the male of the species believe is our purpose, besides being sex slaves and incubators.
BULL SHIT on that. Not acceptable. Not accepting it. It's immoral. It's inhumane (female humans ARE human) and it's ignorant.
There is N O T H I N G a male can teach females about NOT getting raped. What males can do is SHUT. UP. to females, and talk to their male friends about NOT. RAPING. FEMALES.
