Is Date Rape.

Date Rape has an extremely broad definition and application with severe penalties. Women can claim date rape and substantiate it by claiming intoxication. Oddly enough, the man is not recongized as a rape victim of a woman if his senses are dulled by alcohol and he sleeps with someone he normally would not.

Just the charge can ruin your life, and any conviction can bring untold misery. Here, under Megan's LAw, anyone convicted of a sex related crime is forced to register with the police everytime they move and the community has a right to that information. Megan's LAw has been broadly applied also.

So in Zntke711's case I take his question as being a double approach: Is there a policy in place to prevent a girl from suffering, what she might perceive the next day, as negative consequnces to various degrees of lowered inhibition from alcohol and/or drugs (the day after regret that has led to some rape cases).

Also, is there a mechanism in place to warn Brothers away from possibly negative consequences from consumating sex with a guest that will blame the brother, intoxication, or the House for their actions. Its important because his life may as well be over if he needs to face those type of charges.

Note: I'm not including people that have been drugged are that are actually unconscious or near unconscious.

While we have all heard tragic stories about sexual assault, we have all also heard stories of revenge or stories that are so clouded in ambiguity that we begin to doubt the truth of the claims.

I may have even read some stories on this board that fit the above . . .

Anyway, I thought his question was good and worthier of discussion than some of the flippant responses.

And to answer Zntke711, I am unware of a specific program that is geared towards that. Everything else is just the context of Risk management:

Sober monitors
No more than 6 drinks per person
guest list (so you at last know the people)
lock rooms that people shouldn't have access to . . .

Etc.
