Good. The evidence was overwhelmingly against their favor. The real facts (pictures, copies of texts, witness accounts) were made known to the public a week or so ago. These boys were lucky they were tried in a juvenile court.

Parents really need to teach their boys that having sexual contact with a female that is intoxicated is fraught with risk. She may not be able to think clearly enough to consent, and they may rightly be looking at a rape charge. Having sex with a female who is unconscious is unconscionable. The baseline state of consent is NOT yes.

I'm a believer that SCHOOLS should teach this stuff, as well. Abstinence-only sex ed is such a failure, and even the states with real sex ed are teaching how to avoid pregnancy and STI's. Enthusiastic consent and how to talk about sex with your partner really needs to be part of the curriculum.

After an early 90s lawsuit, my college teaches this as part of orientation. Obviously it needs to be taught earlier, but it's a good start.

I agree whole heartedly with you.

Plus, I'm a fan of good sex, and that's a nice side effect of "yes means yes". Sadly, the same forces who want abstinence only are also opposed to the idea that sex is fun.

Yes, and many times they are the same group that think that women are asking to be raped.
