re: #258 piratedan

I’d like to think that most of us want a willing partner, that sometimes the decision making process is affected by booze or drugs is understandable but there’s no denying that there is a small subset of folks that see sex in a different light, some more or less accepted (certain fetishists and folks that are into S&M) some that aren’t (Rapists, natch). It’s that latter group that really find a way to parley their power and control issues into the mainstream that’s bothersome in that there are so many apologists out there for them. Scary that so many of them fall into that theological camp that allows them to have their kicks validated by the invisible sky buddy.

IMHO, alcohol is is responsible for many rapists misinterpretation of events and flawed hindsight.

I think many are honestly surprised when they are accused of rape.

Alcohol doesn’t absolve one of responsibility tho.
