I'm pretty sure that you misinterpreted his point - he's not talking about using intoxication as a defense.
I think he's actually referring to the inability of a person to give legal consent while intoxicated, which I believe has been the precedent nationwide for some years now - especially with regard to sexual crimes. Generally, I'd guess that this is separate from your use of the phrase 'not responsible for your actions' but YMMV.
ETA: It's also important to note that this standard is NOT explicitly only for women, as it also applies to men - although I'm not aware of many (or any) cases where it's been invoked.

*shrugs* His post was very cloudy, I got from it what I did, especially in line with his other posts in this thread. It's a grey area, but as always folks, remember that NO means NO, no matter if drunk or sober.
