Women live in a world with this risk. That's what I'm focused on.

NO. How many Greek parties did you attend as an undergrad?
There is risk in dorms, fraternity houses, off campus houses, on campus houses, apartments, trailers, bars, restaurants, hotel rooms. (I feel like I'm doing the rape version of Green Eggs and Ham) Women - AND men - need to be on their guard any time they are not 100% aware. And that includes being in an emotionally fragile state without drinking a drop of alcohol.
To say that there's a higher risk in one place than another creates a false sense of security when you are NOT in that place, and that's when bad things happen.
