"Will #MeToo dating rules bring on an 'end of men?'"

All good, I didn't take it that way. Like I said, I understand there is a grey zone here. But my gut sense is that the grey zone is very small, and in the vast majority of cases, most of us could agree on what and what isn't appropriate behaviour. This is not an area given to perfect, uniform understanding.

 

I don’t know. Mind you, I’m not saying I think it’s a good idea.

That being said, have you seen the scope of things a Fitbit can monitor? Can’t be too long before it’s capable of monitoring BAC.

 

I think your gut is in error there. The zone is grey, true, but the one being posited is not narrow.

 

I think we are in error when we think of the only "consequences" stemming from a #MeToo misstep being an arrest, conviction, expulsion, or anything else formal.

Becoming a social pariah with a bad reputation among your peers are not nothing.

 

College coffee shops better delete Jimmy Buffett from their Spotify lists now.

 

I'm not being haughty here, I just have no experience with drinking a bunch making me want to or be capable of sexually assaulting a woman. Like, I went to a party school. I drank wholesale amounts of alcohol. I've never had the urge to violate other people. No matter how many drinks, I've never had my moral compass leave me completely at that level. I understand other people react differently to drugs and alcohol, but it's so foreign to me.

I became a nice person when I drank that much, instead of the asshole I am sober.

 

They don’t think that’s what they’re doing.

 

I got drunk every single night for, like, 15 years straight and I can only think of one encounter that was even close to gray-area, even by today’s standards.

 

As long as you don’t date moron, nothing has changed.

I don’t think I’ve done anything. I have little doubt I said things.

 

If, on a moderately booze-heavy night, you “got lucky” ... by emerging standards there’s a good chance you’re guilty of having committed sexual assault.
