I know where you are going with this, and I agree that being drunk doesn't excuse poor decision making.

That also needs to be a 2 way street. Let me give you a scenario. Both parties are quite drunk, but active. For example they are dancing together. The guy grabs the girl by the hand and leads her upstairs; where they have sex. Both parties participating. I would say that the girl the next day cannot claim she was taken advantage of for being drunk. That to me is what the ad in the OP is saying, regretting a one night stand isn't rape.

That's when it can get murky. What if instead of leading her upstairs he carried her? Then once upstairs she removed his pants? (actively participating.) I just don't think you can say that after a set line it becomes rape; it isn't that cut and dry.

I'm sure at least some of us on CP have been drunk and had sex with somebody uglier than our usual standards. Would you consider that rape? Or would you just be given a name like "whale hunter?"
