Uh, gross?
He is certainly thinking he hopes he gets lucky, but if she refuses him, he knows he is out of luck.
There is NO connection between behaviour on a dance floor in a bar and what happens after the bar. Consent is not obtained while dancing via an act that is not sex.
I am unsure why you are trying to walk someone through how a rape can take place by accident? A rape is on purpose, the rapist is aware, they simply are not taking no as an answer for an assortment of reasons.
I doubt many people support the fact that rapists simply are misunderstood.
Can we please stop trying to justify how someone can be an accidental rapist?

I'm not sure where I've justified anything. I never claimed anything like rapists being misunderstood. If you read any of the Cosby stuff it's pretty clear what he was doing was not wrong in his mind, and still isnt. That is absolutely not even god damn close to a justification for anything that he did or does. If a someone drugs another person and rapes them, or rapes a barely concious person, there is no "they aren't taking no for an answer", they haven't given that person the opportunity to give an answer. Or, (like my post was mostly referring to) thinks that earlier cues (like those on the dance floor or elsewhere) were already the go ahead.
At no point did I say that those cues are the go ahead and that if that's what's happening anything is fair game. Nor did I refer to anything as accidental. In fact I very clearly say in the post you quoted that I have no idea how someone can make the leap from a person changing their mind to "well, I'm going for this anyway."
