    I would also like to include myself among those who have been both blotto drunk and crazy high, and I have never felt the need to assault a woman under such influences.

    The guys don't think they're assaulting the women. They think they're getting some.

    In the moment, the women may not even think they are being assaulted or give any indication that they don't want to be part of it.

    But that goes back to the idea that the person you are with might not be competent to give consent.

    Isn't that one of the questions they ask on those, "Are you an alcoholic?" brochures?

    Yeah, but I think you have to answer like 9/10 affirmatively to qualify.

    So that's the one gimme you're allowed to have. Gotcha.

    I guess that theoretically we could get together and not drink at all, but why in God's holy name would we want to?

    In solidarity with my wife who is on a metric ton of medications right now, I've given up alcohol for about six months. Not really hard for me to do, but I have been reminded how boring people actually are.

    Let’s schedule an SJ outing with two conditions:

    1) OOP will be there

    2) No drinking

    We’ll see how many moralists we have then.
