How does Hardy show that Tess is a victim of her contemporary society?

In Hardy's Tess of the D'Urbervilles Tess is victimized by a Victorian society that is conservative and steeped in a tradition of class distinction.  The society may appear sophisticated, but it is rigid and unforgiving on the surface, and corrupt underneath. 

When males participate in the same behavior Tess does but she is the only one to suffer for it, Hardy is demonstrating that Tess is a victim of the mores and values of her society.  When Tess is unfairly judged and figuratively condemned, she is a victim of her society. 

The backward thinking and lack of progressive thought in the Victorian society she is a part of victimizes Tess.  It is a partriarchal and a sexist society.
