Wow, in what world is there a debate over who's fault it is that a woman gets raped?
You didn't respond to my points about skin exposure being a social norm. We choose to show/hide genitals, breasts, ankles, feet, etc based on a region by region basis.

There are people who believe that if a woman who dresses sexy walks through a dangerous area and gets raped, it is her fault for “asking for it.”

It wasn't even her breasts. It was a cardboard dummy shaped like her torso.
However the issue here is that some men, and some women too, find it bothers them to see boobs, but only female boobs. It's irrelevant if some woman happen to agree, because a woman can still oppress woman, just as a Chinese person can still be racist towards Chinese people.
If a women dressing sexy (but otherwise within the generally accepted constraints of not showing genitalia or nipples) and then gets raped by a person (man or woman), is it her fault or the person's fault? Is she asking for it by dressing sexy? Sexy here is in the eye of the rapist, and whether the women thinks she is dressing sexy herself is irrelevant, so I would argue that it is the rapist's fault. If a woman does something to her outward appearance such as enlarging her breasts or dressing "immodestly" and it causes weird feelings or urges in some people, those feelings are wholly the fault of the person feeling them.
