As someone who works at a Rape Crisis center, teaches women's self-defense and other classes on topics related to rape, I can say that in my experience, women blaming themselves for rape, women blaming other women for rape, and men blaming women for rape is still widespread. Perhaps not as overt as it once was when women who were raped would be openly accused of aiding and abetting the rapist, sometimes in court, but it most definitely is still prevelant.
