It is though?

No, it's not funny.

I feel like maybe you’re missing the author’s joke

Am I? As long as the joke is about rape existing I don't find it funny, sorry.

OOP is using irony (funny) to make a point about victim blaming. The joke isn't about sexual assault- it's about victim blaming.

The joke is about subverting the all-too-common expectations of blaming the victim for getting raped by turning the blame back onto the rapists.
