It took a few posts to get you here but you are quite welcome.
Perhaps you are a troll and DeltaBetaBaby had you figured out. You are typing to me about fairness to men and fairness to the accused perpetrator. That is what I have been typing about throughout this thread...you are late. Again, this back and forth between you and me came about because you unfoundedly believed this topic is about mere differences between genders and biological differences. You needed a Gender 101 course and now you are pretending you already knew all of that stuff. We wouldn't be having this discussion if you already knew this and didn't attempt to rebut my "gender inequality, sexism, and patriarchy" comment.

You do know that concept did not originate with the authors of that survey, right?
General comment not in response to honorgal: I generally disagree that intoxicated (yet conscious) people cannot consent to sex and I believe that should be applied to women as well as men. However, since most sexual assaults and rapes are not random acts committed by strangers, there is potential for improvement when women and men focus on safety, reducing the celebration of risky behaviors, and ending "slut shaming".

ETA: College campuses are often a microcosm of society. There are similar dynamics outside of college campuses.
