Can an intoxicated woman actually give consent? I'm not talking unconscious. I'm not talking so drunk she can barely stand up. I'm talking about the level where she shouldn't drive home, but can still carry on a conversation....

If the answer is "No", it begs the question of the percentage of sex acts which qualify as rape?

I take this so seriously because a situation like I described ruined my best friend's life. I mean destroyed him.

Any specifics you’re able to share about this, LD?

All I'll say is that everybody was a little inebriated. We could drive but shouldn't have... My date and I left when his date started saying we should all go back to his place. At this point she was sitting in his lap...So we said thanks, but we really have to get going. The next day his college career was over. It never went to criminal charges, but it came damn close to it.
