Is it really going backwards? Or are you just having a contrived moral panic over some isolated incidents?

'Being lured to a hotel room and assaulted' This could have happened to male or female. It's your dumb fault mommy and daddy didn't teach you NOT to go to an unknown location with people you never met before.

Is it really that 'the industry' finds it acceptable, or is it just that there are creeps everywhere?

That's because people suddenly can't define what a woman is.
