Reply #218: weight vs drinks consumed I would think would be a starting point for building a case. [View All]

and time frame that the drinks are consumed.

The point here is that there is a lot of grey area. Date rape type of situations are hard to get convictions because of all the technical things you are bringing up. Victims going through a trial commonly feel like they are getting raped all over again, trust me. Even with a conviction. And if the accused is innocent, he or she has to go through a humiliating, tiring, and expensive ordeal. This is why the best advice I gave my son was NO CASUAL SEX IF POSSIBLE AND ESPECIALLY WITH GIRLS WHO ARE DRINKING. Period. Good risk management. I would say the same things to girls, and since they are more often the victims and not the perps, I would say avoid drinking socially if possible, or have a buddy system of some kind where one person is not just the designated driver but the designated watch dog.
