Drunk people and consent is a moral and legal gray area - it doesn’t matter if they initiate
Depends how drunk
Yeah, sure. But since she already threw up, she's drunk enough to make it problematic.
It also depends on what is being consented to. We accept that drunk people can consent to commit crimes, but that they cannot consent to have sex.
If drunk people couldn't consent as a rule then like 80% of Finnish one night stands would be double rapes (since both are getting raped by the other party) lol
And the old "I cheated on you because I was drunk". It's not so heartwarming that people here are belittling rape with what would be considered negligent sexual assault at the worst.
I'm just pointing out a strange legal quandary. Obviously noone should fuck around with consent.
hm, yeah so if you can't consent when drunk, then you also can't cheat when drunk. Because it's non consensual in both cases. (at least intentionally, so it would be a valid excuse in this case)
well if someone gets really drunk (not being drugged by others, but doing it because they want to) and commits a crime, thats still a crime they commited
if im wrong please explain
You're wrong, drunk drivers never get fined when they run over someone.
/s
is there a legal basis for this statement? There very well could be, i don't do a lot of raping so i wouldn't know anything about this lmao
